On the Zero Sum DKP going with baseline you will have the issue of inflation.
But we use a Decay system, any item that was purchased over a period of time drops off the list, any gains or losses due to that item purchase are removed, we use about 3 months.
This prevents anyone from hoarding points as they will eventually go away and encourages people to spend points because there lose will eventually go away.

This also prevents previous tier content purchases from stopping people from purchasing new tier items as the DKP is usually at a nominal level.

As for Offspec items we do not allow the use of DKP for these items but the offspec item is given if no one Bids on it (we have set class roles, and is up to the raid leader to make a decision), would rather it go to an offspec class then get sharded.
