I am not understanding this, with all the duping, and all the farming of fungi's. You would think the price of a fungi would have dropped 10 fold. There are so many being sold now. At first the price was justifiable by supply, and demand, but there is sure lot of supply on hand.

I think it is honestly because so many of them were farmed and never sold. There is an artifical shortage.
Case in point, Luca's EC auction thread recently was testing the market on selling 5 pacs & 10 pacs of fungi tunics.
Assumption would be that Luca therefor has at least 10 if not far more than 10 tunics banked on alts.
It is kind of like the diamond industry, the fact that 2 people could duo fungi king and a small group of them could rotate in and out and hold the camp and monopolize the farm essentially let people control the market.
The biggest argument I had for the price going down with the invis nerf is that by forcing people to use full groups it makes it harder for a couple of people to camp & control the market. More people in group = more chance people are selling them and/or the ability for more people to simply camp the tunic instead of being forced to buy it because they are not a level 60 shaman or monk =P
Of course the patch also caused the problem of people not knowing how to camp fungi without invis pulling, which I believe has been overcome by now since I saw full circle camping it a few times.
Now the problem is ddos causing groups there to die =P
