No item has a price, or any form of a value, there is no reason why a Burning flames TC should be worth anymore than an ubersaw. As we have seen from the whole fiasco involving Uncraft vitasaws and such, rarity doesn't always equal value.

"Prices" are based on arbitrary values drawn up by the community based on rarity and popularity, and are not official in any way whatsoever. Within reason, people have the freedom to price things at whatever they want.
