In the topic New Or Old Trunks, Keith confirmed the fact that Costume Trunks are no longer profitable at 500 CSC when they contain a large number of items. Many players miss new ones being released, though.
The Cash Shop Boutique has sets where we can buy individual items for 125 CSC or the complete collection for 1000 CSC. Why not do something on these lines for the kind of fantasy/period clothing items that used to go in Costume Trunks?
I think all Costume Trunk should work like our Boutique items. I have never bought a Costume Trunk in which I was interested in everything. Most of the time, some pieces were going underpriced for what I've paid and some just inflated. It's something that I'd find interesting. I would probably invest more of my CSC/sP in Costume Trunk items.
There aren't always full trunks I normally like to buy either. I mean, there have been some, but not all. Sometimes there are even pieces I want multiples of but have to buy a whole other trunk to get them. Way too much CSC wasted. I think the costume trunks should be a lot like the Boutique, too, so I completely agree with this suggestion.
Seeing as there are a greater amount of Trunk costumes to Boutique items, it might be a better idea if the individual trunks had icons that we clicked on, like they do now. Clicking on each individual trunk would bring us to the page we know well (using this one as an example). On that page there would be a preview of an HA wearing the full set for male and female and under each piece would be a button that says buy for ____ CSC or a button that says Cart.
It would be nice if the way the trunk item previews remain the same as they are now. All that would be needed is the addition of the buttons underneath.
Male and female from each trunk would stay together the way they are now, too. The only difference would be the addition of the individual item buy/cart buttons and under each HA wearing the full set, there'd be a buy whole set for the discounted price of ____ CSC.

- Excellent suggestion. I'm with on this - there are only certain things I want out of certain trunks and that's it. Sometimes selling the stuff I don't want out of the trunk is a pain in the butt unless I sharply discount it.

A scheme along these lines sounds like a great idea for the Trunks.
I'd love this! There's a couple of trunks where I maybe want only one or two items, usually both male and female items, and I'm not about to spend 1000 csc to buy two trunks for only two items.
And the cash shop boutique was supposed to sell high end wears, right? Bump up everything in the cash shop to a luxury price and you got no reason to label it as luxury anymore. I understand why you want to separate them, which is why I'd be for this idea if I knew the prices weren't going to be jacked up to boutique levels. Costume trunks have big and small pieces. There's no way each piece is worth the same amount of sp and therefore csc. If the prices reflect that (and the quality of art because yes I'm still looking at some vanity pieces with questionable shading having a 125 price tag), then I'm all for this.
