How are the prices of in game items and weapons since the patch...

... I have been looking around the gold selling sites and it seems the Patch help price the gold out of the market. Does the ingame economy reflect a lowering of prices to reflect the increase value of gold?

More demands for golds in game
Less supply of golds in game
Gold's value increase
More bots are needed to obtain the gold compared to pre-nerf
More bots = more time
Time = money
Gold's value increase again

There should be less gold (money) flowing in the economy from single/dual person teams.
So that stops or at least slows down the inflation of gold.
In Hard Mode, rare items drop more often than in normal mode before upgrade, also putting a stop to inflation, but it's still a sellers market.
Not sure if we will see lower prices soon, but I think the market is unstable at the moment.

Inflation will be slowed, but deflation will not occur over night. People who had a ton of money pre nerf won't just lose it overnight.

So we need to encourage spending, and trading between players.
I think the current changes work to slow, but not alter the current market of inflation.
I would laugh if: if inflation gets worse, ANet will probably have to install a Xunlai Banking system where people can borrow money, Spend for what they want (so not to alter the economy as the money goes back in) And after a finite time, every time you earn gold by picking it up and selling things, the "Bank" will deduct a percentage until you paid off your loan WITH INTEREST. So then the economy will reverse if ppl use this system.
This is just my stupid solution to the gold problem. The Downside and the weakness of my solution is that there will be an influx of spending and borrowing that we will see the Ascended armour not being so "prestigious" and lowering the figurative value (not the financial value) of the higher costing items.
Also, in theory, it works - but in practice, HawkofStorms pointed out that the already rich and the horders will not easily spend thier own money (Or sucumb to interest on a loan when they can already afford it.) In theory it works, but in practice, its a taxing of the poor in GW. So on second thought it wont be player friendly, but financially, the math indicates (to me anyway) that it can not only stem inflation, but reverse it until the need for loaning money is no longer required
