And that's AFTER spending $60 for Dogwood/Lycoris herself, so the rainbow dressbloom is actually $90 or anywhere from $63-110. Then again, I don't even know how it works in this gacha. If it's a 50% chance, you could just end up getting a skillbloom instead of a dressbloom.
Otherwise, you're paying $50/60 (or $30 for golds the one time they offered it) for a dupe in the guaranteed gachas, which may or may not also give you a skill up, but will definitely give you the equip slot.
In other words, you're currently paying roughly twice as much for the dupe. For just the dressbloom, slightly over half (or exactly half for golds) of that price is not a bad deal. I don't know why you're expecting them to cut that price down to 80-85% off. You've gotten too used to Black Friday sales if you think that's going to be the norm anytime soon.
