All this demonstrates is that 120k is not (or is no longer) the market-clearing price for an Urn, and that more urns are demanded at that price than can be supplied. The beauty of URN discord is that I can choose to forgo buying the MQ if I think the price is too high and earn the Urn myself. When farm crews are in control, that is no longer an option, and monopoly pricing takes effect.

When the price of something goes up, there is often a knee-jerk inclination that the new, more-expensive price is "wrong" and the long-time cheaper price was "right". But that is not necessarily true; often, it's the old price that was "wrong" and the price adjustment comes as a result of the imbalance.
