You would think, but it doesn't seem to be the way things go on P99. Most of those farmers will then just become tunnel questers who don't need to go do anything else so they aren't motivated to sell quickly and cheaply in order to get out of the tunnel. That's why if you go sit in EC for multiple days you'll see people selling the same item for really high prices and refusing to come down...they aren't trying to get back to XPing so they're happy to wait because eventually someone will buy it. Not to mention that those tunnel questers own the bulk of the item in question in existence on the server so they can control what the market price is. This has been an ongoing issue on P99n since before Green.

Plus, then you have double the plat coming into circulation which also inflates the price. If what you're saying is what happens, we would've seen that on Blue with people farming items like crazy 24/7; we would've seen it on Green when Teal merged. But we didn't. Those items are all still going for, and selling at, absurd prices.
