Honestly, the number of 'new players' are so few that they shouldn't really be taken into consideration these days, and besides, I doubt crystal sales will be affected too badly. Crystals have among the highest sales rates and, last I checked, they still don't drop in Abyssea.
The only thing that would have a positive effect for the dozen or so new players would be a full AH merge, which from what I remember, is in the works anyways.
