Inflation has been a little stronger in this version of the game because
(1) the LIVE collection missions were introduced at the beginning of the game thus creating insta-demand for unremarkable bronze and silver players...once a high price point was established, some sellers have sought to explore higher price points that look more palatable in an already inflated market
(2) due to chronic server problems, OOTP limited the number of auctions to 50 per person...this drastically limits supply in the marketplace so sellers are going to prioritize selling higher margin cards because of this policy

3) It feels good to have the in-game currency (PP)...makes you feel like you have options. This is why inflation is much more common than deflation. Keep in mind we're islands as much as we are in competition.
