Well the prices are only going up. I never seen a item getting lower in prices.

Well I mean just the Exchange system, not the anti-scam with you only may give out 3k every 15 minutes. you're still able to give gifts and EM will be able to give prices away.

Could also be a 'store minerals' upgrade (coal, iron, gold, stone). Gem upgrade to cost 100k, mineral upgrade to cost 150k.

True, but people will keep rising the prices and they will get that high again.

Exactly.
