The items and what not in this game seem to have different prices compared to previous titles c: for instance, the emperor butterfly used to sell for 2,500 but now sells for 3,000.

Definitely overpriced, I saw a nice shower stall near the beginning of the game and it was 110k and I was sad.
There's a black card in front of the item instead of a white one so I'm assuming it's considered their daily "premium" item. I'm not a big fan of it but oh well :x

Yeah, it’s like that for everyone. The claw foot tub was in my store today, and it was the same price. They also had a whirlpool bath that was like 99,000 bells or something close to that. It seems like they have changed it to where items have a “realistic” price, which is kind of weird to me but whatever.
I wish I would have noticed this before I accidentally bought an antique wardrobe for almost 40,000 bells.
Also this makes me wonder what the Gracie furniture is going to cost, if it ever comes back to this game...

I've noticed that as well. Compared to other games, the pricing is ridiculous. I believe they are using this tactic to encourage crafting instead of buying. I found crafting fun for a hot second, but now I am totally over it and just want to buy things from the shops, like in the old games.

If they we're trying to encourage crafting with this, they should have at least put a crafters version of said items ;-; Unless there is a crafters version of these items? is there?
It's just so hard to decorate my house when I can't afford the items to decorate it to my liking.

I'm so scared for this! They said they will update the game every now and then, I can't imagine how i'll be able to obtain certain furniture sets if this is how expensive some items already are ;-;
Could this have been implemented as a bell sink post the duplication glitch? Or maybe it is a progressive system based on the player characters liquidity! Either way, I am certainly a fan. We desperately need such a system
In place to balance the in-game market.
I have not encountered such item prices. Then again, I have never duplicated items nor am I swimming in bells ��.

Doubtful. If it that's the reason they did it, then that wasn't a smart move on their part. You see, I imagine that the vast majority of people who play this game have absolutely no knowledge of the duplication glitch or even trade online. You have to realize that the online Animal Crossing community only constitutes for a tiny percentage of the total players. So if anything, this just does nothing but make things too expensive for 95% of the players.

Thank you for the information. That does rule out duplication as a possible cause. Likely just designed as a bell sink, then.
I understand, though that 95% seems like pure conjecture on your part. Not only people within the ‘community’, as you put it, are exposed to this duplication. A bell sink as a consequence of duplication would not severely affect that ‘95%’ of players - as they would not have access to the funds that duplicators have - and thus not subject to the price gouging.
In any case, I fear this would be too much of a sophisticated solution for Nintendo. I support the price gouging nonetheless. I think we need a good bell sink regardless of glitches.

they made things expensive bc they r mean
The prices seem expensive now, but think about how cheap everything was for you in New Leaf by the time you had your house fully upgraded and had nothing else to sink your money into. I don't know about you guys, but I had a few million and that wasn't from any exploits. It was straight up just playing the game normally (well, normally as in sharks and beetle catching all the time haha) over almost eight years. I could buy out shops on my Main Street and not even think twice about it.
For that reason, I personally don't mind that items are more expensive in New Horizons. It makes buying furniture feel like a treat or something you work towards rather than, "Welp, might as well buy the whole store since I'm not using this money on anything else." I make a lot of my money from trading with other players, but even just spending your nights catching fish and bugs will net you a decent chunk of bells each night. It's not impossible to buy 50K+ furniture on New Horizons, just a little harder.
Just my two cents.

I haven't come across anything ridiculously overpriced yet but 63,000 bells for a bathtub you probably can't interact with seems like a ripoff. They better add more ways to earn bells besides fishing and catching bugs if things are going to cost that much, especially when 95% of things things you catch from fishing are sea basses lmaoo.
Also they probably inflated the prices to add more longevity to the game just like with crafting.
