It's nice you guys are finally putting fashion back in the boutique, but wtf @ the price. 10 gold? The only other dress in the boutique that costs 10 gold is the Sapphire Dress and that comes with a new dance to kind of justify the cost. This one doesn't to my knowledge.

Seriously. Every single other dress in the boutique is 4 to 6 gold. Why is this one so special?

    Yeah, thanks for setting the cost so high that it costs the same as buying pack fashion.

    The greed of this company makes me sad.

    why do PWI put prices up when they are basically begging people to go on their home page to 'like' them in an effort to hope that people will download their game, even though they raise prices on 'NEW ITEMS' when in fact, they won't be new for long & people won't pay for the items.

    Just sheer desperation comes to mind

    Ill have to agree it becomes a bit too much with 10g for one piece. Its 6.5m more than the otger dresses, unless gold prices changed any after maintnance on dw. However, the long time weve been waiting for new fash mustve done something to the crowd. Cause its selling ALOT

    Haha I kinda got the same reaction. xD

    20 golds for the set = ~32-36m (depend on server 32 is HL and 36 HT)

    Now some fash in pack are cheapest than that. XD

    I have a **** ton too, but all given to me by my many ex-wives or obtained through MQ or the gold reward from the wedding ceremony. I'd never invest my own money to buy PWI fashion lol, they all look so terrible to me (at least for male fashion). I've bought 1 or 2 sets of fashion over the course of 4 years, and then ended up re-selling them for what I paid for them so I got my money's worth back haha.

    I am not to concerned about the pricing but....I wish PW would release some more interesting fashion sets. Perhaps 3 sets at a time rather than one. Actually what I would really like is if they allowed people to continue sending in fashions designs(like that one constest) or even mounts to be created and used in game. Now that would be fun b:chuckle.

    Guaranteed this person doesn't buy fashion. And also guaranteed if something they bought regularly took a 40% price hike for absolutely no reason, they'd be QQ'ing the forums. Ingame 4$ works out to around 6.5m depending on server. It's a big chunk to overpay considering the fashion doesn't have anything special to justify the price. If a player tried to sell you a 10m item for 16m, regardless if you like it, you'd tell them to ** off and go rip someone else off. The only difference here is PWI is the only seller, and are blatently taking full advantage.

    Hahahah you guys make me laugh. What I said was the funniest thing? And I never buy fashions? Of course I buy fashions, but I don't cry about the price. Paying little bit more than usually doesn't kill. And you people call my text funny because it IS the truth. You say PWI is greedy for putting high prices, but same time people are greedy for wanting almost everything free or cheap. That is a fact and nobody can deny that. Greediness comes from both sides.

    Actually, the price hike is 67%, as I already said, but the former price for dresses is 40% lower than that of the current fash. That's how you fake statistics b:laugh

    It is greedy if you had a steady price for over four years and raise it suddenly for something that is similar to the old priced stuff. And 6$/Euros wasn't really cheap either...

    Nature, I think the point of this thread is people venting their surprise at the price of the new fashion set. And if you read carefully most are saying they feel it is overpriced not that they want it free. In my honest opinion I don't see why I would pay 10 Gold for fashion that looks almost exactly the same as one of the previous old sets.

    I can't speak for anyone else of course.

    Uh... Where are you getting "free and cheap" from?

    We want it for the normal boutique price that fashion has been going for. If you bothered to read, you'd note that the only other mentioned fashion that -does- go for 10g(and it's worth **** now), has a special effect to it. You're talking about a... 16m+(price goes up due to color) fashion, that does absolutely nothing. It's normal boutique fashion. Permanent, not limited time or pack fashion.

    Most fashion does devalue after a bit, but that's after enough of it goes into circulation and/or people don't like it anymore. Not many people would be willing to pay 10 gold for something that should be 6 gold.

    This fash has no special effect, therefore does not warrant a price hike.
