Your comment is really quite interesting and raises several issues. What I find particularly thought-provoking is the issue of supply-demand. Naively, I would have thought that perhaps prices would have increased (or stayed the same) for "Powder Flasks" or "Xs", since though supply (finding more Powder Flasks) would be greater (though there are only so many) that demand (through ebay/internet) would have increased even more (less capped??).

As a scientist, I live and die on internet interactions/data exchange etc, but I am quite "naive" with respect to these broader issues.

Might you expand a bit more--a really interesting comment/observation.

Thanks
