I honestly don't know why they are worth so much? They are so common and are hard to trade off (unless you have the purple or pink). The demand is only high with a few nonmembers, and some members trade for them because the wiki says a headfeather is worth a lot.

I get why headdresses are worth a lot, but I don't really get why the headfeather is worth so much.

Headdresses were removed due to respect for tribal culture (only male leaders of a tribe get them, and not all tribes had them)

But the headfeather wasn't really "removed".

Just like the rare carnival items, other colored variants took it's place. In the headfeather's case, we can now buy "headfeathers" in the diamond shop. Heck, we can even buy the headfeather in AJPW, which proves that the headfeather wasn't really "removed" like the headdress was.

Why then, is the rare star hat (which cost more to buy, may I add) worth a den beta, whilst the headfeather is worth a good short collar?

It is unknown if the old carnival items are going to be re-released, but if the old colors do return to stores, headfeathers would probably come back as well.

Soo.. why is the headfeather worth that much? If they're worth that much, why aren't star hats worth as much? Or the any of the other old carnival items for that matter? Demand is only increasing slightly because of the belief that the headfeather will never return, and that it will continue to increase in value like the headdress.

But that's not true, and the headfeather does have a chance of returning to stores, so I disagree with the AJ wiki, and I think the head feather is probably worth a long wrist at most.

(Before you guys are like "You just want the headfeather's value to be lowered because you afford one" or whatever, just know that I do have headfeathers, and I don't care much for them. I'm just curious on the fact to why they are worth what they are.)
