Everyday there are more Tstaffs on the server, yet the price has nearly doubled over the last year. White dragon scales, 6 months ago I know of someone that sold one for 600k, then a few month after that I saw one listed for 250k, just the other week another friend sold one for 400k.

When you look at these three things separately, it's hard to see it as a pure supply and demand system, when the supply for some items simply doesn't reflect in the prices some people are paying.

Supply and demand factors in, sure. But more than that is the factor of what people think it's worth, regardless of the demand or its supply.
The price started going up with talks of triple attack patch. This would still be within the supply and demand theory.
