Why does a hat cost as much as a coat?

knightnbluknightnblu Member Posts: 104 Arc User
I don't usually buy hats, but this winter I am outfitting a new toon and so I decided to buy the hat. Imagine my surprise when I find that it costs as much as the full length coat. So I have to ask, why do I have to spend as much material on that as I do on a full length coat, when the scarf is far cheaper? I realize that is is only pixels any way you slice it, bug for God's sake people, let's at least try to keep a tiny fraction of immersion.

    *looks at his boots which cost more then the rest of his outfit* actually that sounds about fairly normal.

    Only in parts of the Federation. That statement would draw laughter on Qonos, New Romulus, throughout the Dominion, and might even get you stoned to death on Ferenginar.
    Nothing breaks the tension better than a tankard of warnog - except maybe a good brawl...

    It's fashion. It costs whatever they can sell it for.

    Let's see. I needded an entire outfit for my sons western themed wedding. Good quality shirt and slacks, no problem, didn't cost a lot. Good quality boots ? I could have bought another 5 shirt/slack sets for the same cost. Good quality hat ? Same as the boots.

    The answer as to why hats cost so much, cause they do.
    LTS and loving it.
