You would think so based on the fact that's it holds no real value (HEY ITS LIKE YOUR FIRST THREAD YOU EVER MADE HERE). The thing is, NX is a currency essentially, so a player has an option to purchase an nx card, or mesos'. Obviously the person is going to want to get the bigger bang for his buck. Ultimately it's the ratio of what the NX can do in the game(cubes/scrolls/gacha) that determine the amount the mesos will be charged. This also has an impact based on the fact NX cards get a higher demand after these patches, which in dealers either capping what you purchase, or telling you to come back later.
From my experience those are the two biggest influences to what mesos are valued at a base, incidents like this obviously create special circumstances which reaches an extreme inflation rather than the minor one normally experienced.
