Kakobuy headwear: 48 rows and a $16.85 median
This is the shelf where the row price is smallest and the freight is largest, relative to what you buy. Caps are light, cheap and heavily branded — the opposite of the accessories shelf — and the whole middle of the distribution fits inside a $4 window.
48 rows, median $16.85, half between $15.13 and $18.94 — a band only $3.81 wide. 39 of 48 rows are under $20. At 0.15 kg freight is the flat first-kilo $12.50, which is 43% of the goods-plus-freight total.
Six rows across the price range
One row from each sixth of the shelf, cheapest first — a sample of the spread, not a shortlist. Every tile links to the product page, where the live price and the size grid live.

A $3.81 band tells you the price is not the signal
The middle half of this shelf runs from $15.13 to $18.94. Nothing useful is decided in that range: the difference between a $15.13 cap and a $18.94 cap is the logo, not the construction. 24 of 48 rows carry a brand — Gucci (7), Louis Vuitton (4), Burberry (2), Dior (2) — and that, not the number, is what separates one row from another.
Freight is three times the goods
A $16.85 cap pays $12.50 freight and $2.20 handling before VAT, so the fixed cost of the parcel is roughly 0.7× the item. That ratio is the whole argument for buying several at once: five caps in one parcel pay one $12.50 charge, and per-cap freight falls from $12.50 to $2.50.
The four rows that are not headwear
The cheapest row is $1.17 for World Cup mascot merchandise, and 1 more row under $2.50 is tournament merch filed by event. The 25th percentile is $15.13, which is where real caps start. This shelf also holds the single strangest neighbour in the catalogue: a bracelet filed under hoodies, which sits next door in the shelf table on the price index page. Classification in a scraped catalogue is approximate — read the row.
From row price to landed price
One item per parcel, economy line, assumed 0.15 kg, 21% modelled VAT for the EU. Germany charges 19%, Poland 23%. Freight is the planning default from the shipping page, not a live quote.

Questions about this shelf
What does a cap cost on Kakobuy, all in?
The median row is $16.85 and lands around $37.71 in the EU once $12.50 freight, $2.20 handling and $6.16 VAT are added. Buying five at once drops the landed figure per cap to about $23.85.
Are the branded caps real?
24 of 48 rows name a brand, and the row name is the only evidence the index carries. The row does not certify authenticity; the product page and the QC photos are where you check stitching, label placement and hardware.
Why does this shelf have so few expensive rows?
Because headwear has a ceiling: the dearest row is $33.08, a fashion hat. Unlike jackets or watches there is no premium tier in this catalogue's headwear — the spread from cheapest real cap to dearest is $17.95.
