Emerald eye is not projected.
A projected item is when an item has been sold for an absurdly high price, that thus causes the rap to rise depending on how high it was sold.
Inflated is slightly similar, but it is when the item is sold for higher than the rap (causing average price to rise) but it is constantly sold at that price, maintaining a constant value of raising

no, the rap doesn't have to increase. just by the sales increasing makes it count as projected

@Tivec

That doesn't make any sense, the sales increasing is causing it to inflate, the more sales above price makes it rise in rap.
Projected is when it is sold for a high amount of robux and then it sells for a regular amount after that, but in some cases with rare or low demand items, they can maintain their value (such as dr spooks) because it isn't as popular as other items such as shaggy

What I meant was the first few sales, not all of them.

@Tivec

Yet again that doesn't make sense. You see, you're confused - the first few sales above the rap price indicates that it is rising, or going to rise. This is the beginning of an inflation.

A projected item sells for a very high price instantly, there is no slow rise to it, it's sudden. This is what marks as a projected item, a false sense of a price.
