The Economy..

Pigpenguin And I were talking and we decided 800% was a reasonable price, making diamonds around 160.

Drag, we call this inflation. People have a ton of money because of the way the economy runs. Just accept that money is worth a lot less than it used to. Shops should increase their prices for everything valuable until there's a balance.

Shops run out of stock quickly because their prices are too low. The fault of unbalance at this point is in the shopkeepers not increasing their prices. They should increase their prices until they find the point where they're restocking their shops as quickly as they're being bought. Once that happens, or is at least attempted, we can figure out whether we need any other action to balance the economy. Stop talking about changing the economy again, we're just in the phase where there's unbalance and no one has attempted to balance it in game but pigpen and a few other shop keepers.
