OK so I can understand that people want to see the event and have not been able to get tickets or it's too far to travel etc but why oh why are SE giving them the moogle outfit as well. Why was this not an option in the first place. So I now have paid for a ticket and paid for travel and will be paying for food etc for an item which I could have got far cheaper.

Yes I know there will be lots of other things to do at the event but I was primarily going for the item. If I had known this was an option I would not have paid what will probably turn out to be two to three times more.
