The reason people ask for and get insane prices for purples on the auction house is becuase of the itmpact of farnaers on the economy.

Farmers set the expectation high becuase of all the items they put on the AH at insanely high prices. They don't care if it sells right away becuase it encourages people to either buy gold from a farmer site to purchase the unreasonably inflated item, or someone does purchase it, which then provides them with more gold to sell to someone else.

Real players most often will not pay more than a couple hundred gold for an item (epic or not). They will either go join a raid guild to get something better through DKP.

Personally, I have paid more than 200G for an item once, and I ahve never paid more than 400G for any item.
