The cost of an advanced navigation or feature is dictated by the time it
takes to develop it. If the site requires an advanced DHTML cross-browser
navigation (we're not taking gif-swapping here) and that that navigation has
to developed from scratch it takes time. Often you've got very similar
components (such as hierarchial menues) that only need to be slightly
modified or simply implemented, and naturally that is rather quick. But the
first client that requests a new, custom made advanced navigation will have
to pay for it's development.

Here's a saying that kind of fits the subject:
"Buy quality, cry once"
