you also gotta remember that full dragon catches attention much more than guthans or any other barrows set. Dragon is THE status symbol. if you have that you are elite in whatever you do whether its merchanting kill the KQ or fletching. its also the armour of merchanters who otherwise can't really express their wealth. dragon is like the stuff you wear to relax and not go kill stuff. if you can afford dragon then you can afford to get all the other barrows things for when you wanna go kill things. ok ramblings over and it probably didn't make any sense...sorry
