Not sure if you guys have noticed, but a certain group of individuals (maybe rmt) has been controlling some items on the AH.
The names are:
Terimin, Flattus, Iguttis, Rufuso, Urames, Xicoroy, Yumigo, Brisko, Obitog, Monscorp, Miechay, Aiegan, Geminort, Slaute, Apharto, Ivanclo, Ledsoul, Seabirt
Their target items include fuma sune-ate, brown belt, woodsman ring, flame ring, scouter's rope, flame ring, melody +1 earrings, elusive earrings.
Their usual method is to buy the items when they are low in price, sell among themselves to raise the prices up and ensure the AH history only show the inflated price and then sell it to other players who are unaware of this artificial 'inflation',
In short, they have cornered the market on these items, causing prices to fluctuate wildly between high and low peaks. All these information can be seen on FFXIAH.com.
So, be aware of them (if you're not). Don't get conned into buying things at the inflated prices and if you can try, buy up the low price items, and sell it at the high prices also. Try to make your own profit from them, predict what items are next to fall or rise.

Was posted in my LS Forum and readers are urged to post in the various Public Forums to let people be aware the prices of certain Items on the AH may be set Artificially.
These people may nor may not be RMTs and readers should decide for themselves.
It is a fact, though, that some these people are buying certain EQ over and over again in a matter of days.
Example:
Seabirt
Bought 3 Assault Earrings within a space of 3 Days (25/01 to 28/01) even though Assault Earrings are Rare, cannot be De-Synthesized and cannot be sold to NPC for more than 4k.
Geminort
Bought 6 Woodsman Rings within a space of 6 Days (25/01 to 30/01).
To be fair, there is a chance that these people might not be in a Syndicate, but are genuine AH Investors looking to stack up on AH Items when price is low in hopes of selling these for Profits in Future.
This is not to condemn anyone and there are no definite evidence. It serves only as an informative post to fellow Ragnarok Players how AH Prices can be fixed if a Syndicate of 15+ people wishes to do it.
