Everyone should stop paying 6k for HUDS! (And alot for other expensive hats)

Here's my reason why

If NO ONE pays more than 100g for a hud, then Huds will only be WORTH less than 100g.
So I say that everyone should stop paying so much for huds.

If this doesn't make sense, go try to sell dreads for 2k

It won't work.
Dreads aren't worth 2k
Dreads aren't worth 2k because NO ONE PAYS that much!

Hats are ONLY WORTH AS MUCH AS PEOPLE WILL PAY!

Maybe it's because they're very rare hats.

Oh no, I payed 8k for a cheese hat :O
hats are overated, they should be free, or just be some decorative thing that you can buy, not some kind of "POKEHAT! GOTTA COLLECT THEM ALL" or something.

My Halo hat has been going up in price I remember when people was buy/selling for around 125 and below, and now I see it go for 700-1k now

Its all about supply and demands

Right now HUDs are in demand, more people want them and oh so little people have em

Lets say this

Somebody buys 10 bingoblah hats and has all but 3 of em, they are rather cool looking and not exactly in style at the time. A month goes by people are starting to like the look of this hat. So they want it but can't find a buyer and untill they do they will buy for almost anything if the person who has the hat is greedy enough player will forced to buy it. Continue the cycle with a few times with that one hat. Price of that 30 gralat hat is over 4k

HUDs are worth mega bucks because of supply and demand.


There are no more than 20 blue huds.

Just about everyone wants one.

Result: The HUD-gifted will want to take advantage of their upper hand and make lots of gralats, which are good for villas etc.

If this doesn't make sense, go try to sell dreads for 2k

It won't work.
Dreads aren't worth 2k
Dreads aren't worth 2k because NO ONE PAYS that much!

Hats are ONLY WORTH AS MUCH AS PEOPLE WILL PAY!
Only 11 of each HUD was released (including the first 3).
If people wont pay over 100g for them... well.. then people just won't sell them;
They'll be happy having one of the only 33 HUDs on the server; They aren't going to give up such a rare hat for a low price, hell, I wouldn't.

The funny thing is that there is less Flame Shoguns, Pink Shoguns, White Shoguns and Shades then there are HUDs.

It just depends on what is in demand. It doesn't matter how many exist on the server. If you have some ugly rare hat and it only has like 3 in existence, it will probably have no demand for that hat except for hat collectors that try collecting every hat.
