So why is the Silken Dancer hair 2 extra gold compared to all the other new hair and the Silken Dancer dress nearly double the price of the other dresses and shirt+bottoms combos? Fo' realz.

    Honestly you have to wonder why any of the fashion is different pricing, and why some require more dyes than others. Its not like you are getting a barber shop hair cut for $10 as opposed to a $150 hair studio cut, or a $5 t-shirt compared to a $200 fashion designer label. :D

    Because they know people will buy it regardless.
    Also, rarity / newer thing comes to mind.​​

    i think they can get away with some prices because it could be a time limited fash like the grand fairy and the others recently. once its gone in boutique people go nuts on the street. could be wrong but who ever knows pwi staff logic at times.

    IT annoys me that I just got the silver star hair and if I hadn't I'd be able to get the new hair that I like way more. No one wants to buy the other hair either ._.

    Pretty sure this set would be cheaper if it were actually in packs.​​

    Considering most new fashion in new packs people try to sell for 200+ million for a set, I much prefer boutique fashion I can buy for gold. Now if they would release more male fashion.......

    200m when it first first comes out, maybe. But they drop down to 30-50m easy after awhile.​​

    A lot of times it does, I agree, but there are those that think because it comes from a pack it means its worth gobs of coin.

    Lol @ cheaper in packs. You find an Orchid Cocktail hair for under 80m, or really at any price these days since they practically don't exist and I'll agree. I think I've only ever seen one person wearing it, and maybe 5 for sale. Ever.

    Your server needs more pack openers then. I got my Orchid set for 35m.

    I've also seen a lot on former Arch, it wasn't that rare.​​

    I'm pretty happy PW's filling the boutique with fashion. The selection allows me to buy the individual pieces I want without having to pay a ridiculous price for an entire fashion pack; I normally don't like complete sets and prefer coordinating. You can have a lot of pack openers but that doesn't always guarantee the prices of exclusive fashion will go down. I still see old but common sets like Wayfarer and Demure being sold for 50-60m. Orchid has become a little less rare on Etherblade but it's still going for 90m+. The sellers know there are people who will purchase stuff for enormous figures...

    And RIP at the random pigment nerf. All of my black/white fashion prior to the nerf was achieved that way and now I have to buy the actual pigments since I keep getting greens and purples. I hate spending more than 40m on fashion. Dye sale please, PWE. Black/white dyes are going for 8m right now. ˚‧º·(˚ ˃̣̣̥⌓˂̣̣̥ )‧º·˚​​

    The price of the hair in this set says pwi flips a coin, points and says, "That one. That will be the one that everyone wants. Up the dyes! Up the cost! It's going to sell!"
