stats

I'm level 14 and and have 3 points in Strength (2% ATK per talent level) and 5 points in Adaptable (1% to ATK and MATK per talent level), both increase ATK power for melee weapons. I have the 1H Carrot Sword and the stats state that it has an ATK of 139 (+5). I also have a 2H Squire's Claymore...

I've been playing Arcade mode a lot, and noticed that the Straw Boater has LOWER stats than the Warm Hat, yet sells for 50 MORE gold. Shouldn't the price of items scale up depending on what stats they have? I'm not sure if this is also the case with other items. If it is, I will keep this thread...
