P99 doesn't have a traditional economy. people pay based on perception of an items value. Not any realistic economic value(s).
This is why the server is flooded with fungi tunics but they're still 45k a pop in ec. it's lame.

That sounds like a traditional economy to me.
There is tons and tons of fungis but it's an incredibly useful item which is why it commands it's price. There's tons of fungis but there's also a soft cap of how many appear each day. At most 3-4 drop a day. Probably more likely 1-2, closer to 1. If 10 dropped a day it would most likely only command 5-10k or something if that. If 1 dropped a week it would probably be worth exponentially more like 400k(the rarer items get the bigger the premium).
In real economies, projected futures matter. It's why the economy surged after Trump got elected.... and we live in a real economy. The reason it surged was expected future conditions. This is the same reason things like CoS increase in value over time. The expected future is less CoS in the market thus the price rises now in expectation.
