RE: I thought we were at the top at $800 LoL

According to the Inflation Calculator website:

What cost $800 in 1985 would cost $1573.97 in 2009.

Also, if you were to buy exactly the same products in 2009 and 1985, they would cost you $800 and $390.92 respectively.

Gold is just adjusting to inflation.
