I suggested in another thread about bring in a diamond category where diamond can only be won a few times a year overall, in this category a phat could fit in. As the chances of winning a phat would be pretty much nil. As a diamond can only come up a few plus times a year for the whole of RS, not an individual person and since there are other prizes on this category it would be extremely rare.

Maybe in TH bring in a Diamond category where stuff such weapons, armour and other miscellaneous items that may cause devaluation in-game can only be won say a few times year overall <- doing this will stop items devaluing.
This would create a lose-lose dilemma; if the category, let alone the prize (partyhat) in it, is so insanely rare, it won't make the slightest of difference to satisfying those who want to get the partyhat, since almost all of them will remain without. All the while you devalue the historical value of already existing partyhats, since new copies would enter to the market and get confused with the old copies, resulting in all copies being treated as new.
Of course, you could mitigate that by keeping existing partyhat colors discontinued, but if you were to release new colors for example, why would you be dumb enough to want them to be placed on a predatory gambling simulator? Not only do you risk never getting one yourself, but it'd be far more satisfying to earn one via actual gameplay.
