One might consider what could prompt such a significant difference in pricing between Eubanks and his colleagues. There could be different variables affecting this choice. It’s conceivable that Eubanks sees his image as especially important, or he might need to restrict the number of invites he gets. No matter what the reasons, the exceptional pricing procedure has ignited discussion among fans.
