Your friend is probably just a better wheeler and dealer then you. Diamonds are not that hard to get, but you do have to work to get them. The problem isn't the difficulty of getting diamonds or plat, the problem is the fact that sellers corner markets and then inflate the prices to unreasonable amounts. Something that is 100 diamonds is sort of reasonable...selling an item for 1100 diamonds is not. I don't care how rare the item is, that's ridiculous and its single handedly inflating the price of the diamond and the item itself.
