That may be true, however, on here the majority of players are from Kunark or pre-Kunark.

This is what I remember. Even around Luclin and PoP (on Prexus) I recall the very rare Rubi BP or Rubi set going for ridiculously high prices, simply because it's a novelty/prestige thing that doesn't drop anymore, and it's great for showing off when you're not exp/raiding.
