Gear cost increase?

Pit gear does cost 1400 crystals, but a full mk 5 Gun has always cost 2500ish crystals. The prototype is 1274.

They have not increased the cost of gear in shipments.

A full gear costs 2500, just the Stun Gun - 1400.

Full Gear = Stun Gun + Carbanti or Full Furnace = Furnace + Syringe + Holo Projector

This isn't true at all. A full mk 5 furnace (i.e. Pit gear) is 1400 crystals. And a full carbanti is 1400 crystals. And a full mk4 stun gun is 1400 crystals. A full mk 3 holo is 300 cyrstals, but a full mk 7 chip is 273.

There is little rhyme or reason to the pricing, but it has not changed.

Hello all, I’ve got a MK V Stun Gun in shipments for over 2500 crystals! Wasn’t most raid gear costing 1400 crystals before? Or have EA/CG increased the cost?

On a side note, I heard it outta the mouths of a couple of Devs on the Galactic War Report podcast. When they were alluding to flash events and promising us the gear crunch would be eased a little. While the gear I got for first three tiers was mediocre to me as a longer time player, well it was insulting that the good gear was in the bonus tier and I like many others couldn’t get Sabine farmed in time, so locked out of good gear again!!

Please tell me they haven’t now increased the cost of gear in shipments?

How can you not have sabine at 5 stars yet? I farmed her completely ftp and I almost got her at 6 now

What are you talking about? I am explaining to him why his Stun Gun costs 2500 instead of 1400. The reason is, it's because it's not just the Stun Gun but also the Carbanti, in other words the whole item, not just a part of it. Furnace is actually more expensive, I just gave it as an example.

A full furnace, bought as a complete piece from the store, and not salvages, only costs 1400 right now. It is not priced as the sum of it's parts like the stun gun is.

An actual full furnace with all the pieces costs much more.
This is a piece of furnace and it costs 1400 - Click

This is the entire item which costs much more - Click

No way, furnaces have always costed the same, 1400. I have bought quite a few so I'm pretty sure...

Furnace costs 1.400, full raid gear piece

You are explaining incorrectly. Many pieces cost more because the sum of their parts cost more. Pit gear (mk 5 Furnace, mk7 Scanner, mk6 Tech, mk5 Caller) are bad examples, because they are 1400 crystals for a full piece.

You are correct that a mk5 stun gun full piece is 2500+ crystals, and the assumption is that this is because it is a gun prototype (1274 crystals), a mk3 carbanti (1400 crystals), and some other little piece (not sure the cost). However, we don't really know that this is why, because the pricing is all over the place. For instance, the Mk 7 Holo Lens (https://swgoh.gg/db/gear/099/mk-7-taggeco-holo-lens/) that costs 273 crystals requires a Mk 3 Projector (https://swgoh.gg/db/gear/102/mk-3-sienar-holo-projector/) which costs 300 crystals.
