You are thinking of supply and demand, not inflation.Inflation is complicated, but it basically involves cash injections into the economy, causing more money to be in circulation, which means each $ becomes "worth" less, and prices rise to compensate. This is a very simplistic explanation.This will not happen, nor will prices change due to supply and demand, as all the shops are managed by the server - IE Infinite supply.Once we implement a user controlled market, this will change.

If there was 1000 gold blocks on the market, and now there is 2000, the price rises)There will not be inflation because 1. Your example is not solely inflation, you are thinking of supply and demand, and 2. the server will have an unlimited supply of blocks therefore the demand will not increase the price.

Glowstone could easily go up as there is less and less around the portal.
