Why was the price of cat ears increased

[UrsulaMejor]

They were intended to be out of reach of staff assistants at round start, but the ones in the clothing booth were undercosted because i didn't realize that the clothing booth was not the same thing as the clothing vendor.

The economy change this update was a part of was years ago, it was just missed until now

I see, thanks for the clarification, is there any reason as to why its intended to be unbuyable by staff assistants roundstart?

Certain popular items were adjusted a while back to be expensive enough to represent a significant choice in the first two paycycles; e.g., if you are going to buy cat ears in pay cycle 1, then you can't afford medical supplies out the vendor in pay cycle two.

It's also a light incentive to not staff assistant it up all the time; they're poor, and don't have access to all the fun stuff immediately without doing some money begging
