Differences in Prices

[bonez899]

I was playing today and looking for some armour when I noticed that in the exact same town, and exact same shop, the price for an item was different between the two. I got a couple of screenshots I'll share but I was wondering why? I apoligise ahead of time for the massive pictures and will stick them in spoilers due to this. Also, the items were of the same quality.

隐藏: The first more expensive one.

隐藏: The second, oddly cheaper one.

Those must be 2 different items at the code level.

The numbers, 3520 for the first one, 3610 for the second one, are the base prices for them. Otherwise the stats are the same for both.

There shouldn't be any difference between them in practice, the more expensive one doesn't actually have anything about it that makes it better.
They have different mesh names  [("heraldic_armor_new_b",0)]  [("heraldic_armor_new_c",0)] but that's just looks, and apparently both meshes look the same. That may be intentional or it may have just slipped by.

Thanks for the quick and insightful reply. I just had never run into that before so it made me wonder. Thanks again.
