Part of the issue in all this is that where's a market for new players to interact with? Is there even a market for new players? Since they will only have at most 50-200 platinum for transactions, what can they get? It's not a hypothetical question of what could they get for 50-200 platinum, rather, it's a question of Does anybody sell anything that's 50-200 platinum???? The value of platinum has gone down, right? So imagine that suddenly the market is so inflated that the entrance amount is 300 platinum. Anything below that would be useless. It would be like me going to EC and asking what I can get for 1 platinum and getting laughed at.

Who would sell to a new player other than a new player? Are there enough of them to make ends meet? Are there enough veterans to give away rotting gear or to give freebies to make em feel loved?

I think many players don't even bother to sell when they're low level. And by the time they're higher level and want to sell, there's no point at all in selling low plat items for new players.
