Stuff packs are $12.99 in Canada which is less than the minimum wage in some provinces and territories. It takes thousands of hours to make a stuff pack, so no, I don't think they are overpriced.
Also, some items take longer to make than others so it is illogical to just count the number of items in a pack without considering whether they are just re-meshed items or new items with new gameplay. Even then, not all re-meshed items take the same time to make.
Furthermore, a percentage of the price is to pay for costs not associated with making the items. Someone needs to pay for EA's accountants, lawyers, marketing staff, web developers, IT staff, rent, insurance, etc.
