Price of Moldy Bags
It contains items that are high in demand but hard to get naturally, especially on high-level characters.
Krall Bloodsword – Mesmer
Krall Peterson – Warrior

Moldy Bags apparently don’t drop very often, so the price is based most likely on old listings that are no longer relevant.

There are very few undead in that level range to drop them. There’s no profit at all in opening them, they’re expensive because of that rarity and…that’s it.
Its because of GW2’s level-based loot. The higher level you become, the harder it is to get lower-level loot. While you can get some drops of a lower level while downlevelled, it is extremely difficult to get a sizeable amount compared to max-level loot.
For example ,look at the price of Silver Doubloons. They’ve always been like that, because they’re required by Juggernaught but drop mostly to newbies. They have very little intrinsic value (anyone wanting boon duration will be using Platinum Doubloons), yet they are one of the most profitable items in the game.

Not sure what you mean by that…

Pump and Dump
It’s a trick used by schemers to run up the price of something by suggesting it is valuable in order to move their own stock at an elevated price.

Aaaah gotcha.
It could be, but as high priced as they are, I am not sure there is much of a market for it. T3 mats are a bit more difficult to come by, but there are other ways to get them aside from moldy bags that are easier to aquire.
You’d be better off going for Miner’s sacks from Dredge. Those things drop like flies, and contain more profitable items.

That’s because it’s a lot harder to get those materials at lvl 80.

Not really. The many other bags that drop the same tier of loot can be found in abundance in the level appropriate zones. With the bags it doesn’t matter the level you open them at. 1, or 80, you’ll still get the same tier of materials.

Yes, but the chances of an 80 being in those zones is much less.

Well then, of course it’s going to be harder for a lvl 80 to get lower tier mats. If you aren’t playing in the areas where they are granted, you can’t really expect to get them can you?

Yes, they’re hard to get, but that shouldn’t give them higher value unopened than the highest possible value of opening them. Near as I can tell, there’s literally no way to buy one and not lose a lot of money.
