The simple answer, because it's Gold it's considered rare, therefore more expensive.

Personaly, I'd be more than happy with the purple version.

best explanation I ever saw for why gold is worth more than purple and earned a permanent home on my subscribed list for it.

just a heads up about grape and golds. some nf grapes differ in skins from their gold counterparts. there was a thread about it somewhere but i cant be bothered to search for it.
