Is the HBC super rare or do I have terrible luck?

3 kills and you are whining on the forums about the lack of a drop you wanted?

Wow... maybe EQ isn't the game for you.

I have farmed about 10 of those things in the past. Sometimes I run there, he's up and drops the cloak right away. Other times I'm there and get to watch the entire Lord of the Rings trilogy before a cloak drops. It's all about luck.

HBC can be found in most major Canadian cities but is on a downward spiral. It is still the oldest company in North America and I can in fact say that cloaks can be bought here.

You may want to consider this option.
