If this is true than the item no longer dropping wouldn't cause a change in price....or do you think its a coincidence that the price took off when they removed it from the game? Surely, the "strength" of the item didn't increase at all.

It's all supply and demand, literally nothing else.
Item being strong means there's more demand.
Item no longer dropping means there's less supply.
You can have an item that no longer drops but isn't strong / useful. Supply is low but demand is low as well - price stays low. Example: Gem Encrusted Ring.
You can have an item that still drops but is strong / useful. Demand outmatches the supply - price is high. Example: AoN, Fungi, Left Goblin Ear (yes, 30 plat per common, stackable lvl 20 mob drop is a damn high price).
Don't skip them economics classes!
