My question is this item takes up the headband slot, is it possible to combine it with a Headband of Inspired Wisdom?

While there are rules for adding additional effects to pre-existing wondrous items, it is firmly in 'ask your DM' territory as to if such a thing is applicable in your game.
ROFL how did I miss that
"This taut black band, clipped with a black metal skull, can be attached on the outside of a hat or other head slot item or can be worn as a normal headband. "
It specifically says it can attached to another head slot item. So yes it is possible to combine it with a Headband of Inspired Wisdom
This is incorrect. It can be combined with other head slot items, just like any headband slot item, but it cannot be combined with a headband of inspired wisdom because the latter is also a headband slot item, and you only get one of those.
Isn't this specific vs general though. You can only have one headband slot item, unless something specifies otherwise. And this specified otherwise.
Ah. I see. That language is a bit confusing.

9400. Most exspensive item is the one not multiplied by 1.5
Nope.
Last added is multiplied by 1.5.Merchants assume things are created in the most efficient way, so they offer you a price based on the efficient way and not the actual way used.

Cevah is technically correct. If you have an item that you want to put a more expensive ability on, you can effectively bypass this with sufficient time by selling the old item and crafting a new one in the correct order. This won't help for things like arcane bond, though.
I've never been at a table where this was actually enforced, though-- following the KISS principle, we've always played it calculated as "most expensive first" regardless of chronological order.
What happens when tables and text disagree?
I found 3 FAQs that indicate text trumps table.
From an old post of mine:
Found in the FAQs for UM (after looking in CRB and APG):
FAQ 1 "The text on page 143 is correct."
FAQ 2 "The text on page 153 is correct."
FAQ 3 "The text on page 157 is correct."
It seems text is preferred to table in the FAQs.
