Black socks being worth a few rims is ridiculous and ya'll know it. How come when I mentioned that spikes and betas are too common to be 'worth' as much they are, due to more of them coming into the game every day via Forgotten Desert, I got told "Oh, well, most of the values are based on demand/popularity, not actual rarity", Yet when we have an item like black socks, that is FAR more demanded than any other color variant,  it's listed as 'few rims'? I don't think any of us have met a single person willing to take a few rims for their black socks, and I think we all get offered quite a bit more than that, no?

Saying black socks are worth the same as the other less popular socks is like saying black longs are the same as the others longs. Black longs, in numbers, are no rarer than orange. (Yes, it is true.) They were released AT RANDOM as member gifts and continue to be given out, again, AT RANDOM, In the desert, in no particular order or quantity. There's roughly a similar amount of each in the game. 3 good longs for a black is based solely on the fact that black longs are way more popular than the others, not the rarity. Socks should be no different. Just because they came out in the calender with the other socks does NOT make them worth the same, due to supply and demand. C'mon wiki, let's keep it current here. at least a clothing beta, bros. (and i mean that's the BARE minimum).
