Outfits in store range from $100 - 390 and permitions despite the sign at the front of the store claiming everything is no transfer are inconsistent with some outfits being no transfer, others transferable, and still some being a mix of the two permition options. There are several $25 lingerie sets that are transferable as well as vendors from D-Factor in store which vendors display that the items are transferable. So look before you purchase items.
