Yes, the same price glitch has happened again. I know last time I abused it to give my account well over 1b. But this time I won't. Here is the run-down of how it is done; I hope this will help the MGE staff fix this problem once and for all.

Every now and then any item worth UNDER 10,000 coins will become 1,000x less valuable, so an item worth 5,500 coins will become 5 coins. This allows players to buy MASS stock of the item for next to nothing. Then when the MGE updates the price will go to normal, and those 10,000 items worth 5 coins will be worth 50,000,000.

However this time I noticed it made the item be worth 0 coins, so maybe you guys already fixed it?

EDIT: Never mind, I think it was just fixed. But at any rate MGE staff should look over this to see how it was done, if they didn't know how it was done.
Which item was 0 mockGP? Btw thanks for letting us know about this.

Well, on the bright side. The GEC seems to be self correcting this glitch on its own. I haven't done anything to correct it. On the negative side, I really should find out why the glitch is occurring at all, so the GEC doesn't have to self correct.

whats wrong with self correcting it's self :o
The self correcting is great... and I am very happy that I've got the site tweaked well enough that it is self correcting a bug I didn't anticipate....

But.... the bug itself shouldn't exist so I still need to find out what is causing it. I've got some ideas about that.
