I could get a full set of clothes for the same price as this hat!
I think a lot more people would buy one if the price was changed. Like come on! It's a hat, since when are hats £25?

I don't really want the hat, anyway I could just get like 7 bonds on my account and give them up to get the cosmetic?

One of the main reasons I got Premium Membership was so I wouldn't miss out on any of the promos, and now this hat one just doesn't sit right with me if there's no way except paying real cash for it.

People who buy the other caps wouldn't really have much interest in the in-game item if you only make it for one faction.

Edit: I'm also a bit disappointed you didn't fix the Armadyl colour scheme to be 6th Age themed instead of 3rd Age themed. I may consider it if you open up for buying with bonds.

oh sure, you get the seven main factions, but no guthix cap? no tuska cap? heck, for those few out there, no sliske cap? and on top of it, you're giving a ingame item based on the most popular of the seven caps. give us a break man.

Hello, I have formulated my own opinion on this and have decided to take the diplomatic approach.

1. 35 USD for a snapback does seem a little steep, however, I have personally payed up to $40 for a fitted cap, so that price is not unheard of. However, for a snapback, I believe a much fairer price would be anywhere from 20 - 25 USD. (Or whatever price that converts to for other currencies)

2. It would have been really cool to see a Guthix cap, and now that it is obviously in demand by many people on this very forum, it might be a possibility in the future?

3. All of the caps should have been made as a cosmetic override, with the player getting to choose their faction, and then support that faction in game. I personally don't believe it to be very fair that whoever is purchasing the snapback shouldn't get an in game model of what they are paying for. Honestly, how difficult is it to design 7 head slot items that are slightly different?

Thank you for reading, and I hope that Jagex can tweak a few things having to do with these hats, as i really would like one myself :D
