My knowledge and application of mathematics is shaky at best, I’ll freely admit, so perhaps I am missing something key here which explains the seemingly inexplicable.
If I go into a shop and buy a slice of cake it costs, lets say for simplicity, 1 GBP. Then if I decided I wanted the whole cake, or eight slices I could expect it to cost 8 GBP or perhaps a little less as I am buying in bulk. I have never entered a shop which charged more for a slice of cake than the whole cake.
So can someone explain this to me?
Why does something which uses a quarter of the materials cost 4 times as much? If you work in the clothing industry and would like to offer and explanation I’d be very interested to hear from you.
You have to consider the cuteness factor of buying a tiny version for an adorable tiny person. What? They don’t teach the cuteness factor in economics?

I agree that the cuteness factor may add to the price but x4?!
