I looked through some old screenshots in May 2010 from p1999.
Here're some prices I found:
Glowing bone callar (neck, 5ac 25hp 25mana 0.4wt) - 350p.
Drake-hide Sleeves (arms, 4ac 3sta 10hp 0.1wt) - 100p.
Foreman's Tunic (chest, 10ac 3str 3wis 0.0wt) - 150p.
Treant Staff (2hb, 10/35 9.5wt effect:root at lvl 18) - 100p.
Black Sapphire Electrum Earring (ear, 2ac 35hp 25mana 0.1wt) - 7000p.
Djarns Amethyst Ring (finger, 9agi 80hp 0.1wt) - 12,000p
Rain Caller (range, 20/45 6str 6dex 200rng 3.0wt effect:firestrike at lvl 40) - 20,000p
Mithril Greaves (legs, 10ac 7str 5svm 3.7wt) - 4000p
Watchman Boots (feet, 5ac 5sta 6.5wt effect:SOW at lvl 10; 1 charges) - 700p
Some of these are within reach of new players; 100-200p. In fact, I remember buying the Glowing Bone Collar off of a merchant in 2010 for like 40p or something. Saved a lot of money.
What're these items priced now? If mudflation is present and twinks don't usually seek out an item, I think the price should be lower, since there should be lots of this (older) item and kunark items are better too. If mudflation is present and twinks usually want an item, the price should be higher (to reflect the larger amount of currency in circulation) and its higher demand/supply ratio.
As for high level players wanting to get the best items, it will be very very expensive due to the large amounts of currency foating around amongst the higher levels. RMT and buying low/selling high (this is not illegal like RMT) will make it worse, but this applies I think to all items that're somewhat desirable.
