And the Problems Continue...

I believe it's the style of the item that causes the classification of Rare, Common, and Crude. For example, there are no crude coats, so far as I know. I have however seen flat black coats. I have yet to see much crude or even common true white. In fact, the only white I have seen so far is on a rare corset and a crude skirt that are slightly different color in shops. I agree, it's strange logic, but my pirates will enjoy happily the strange labeling system that allows for bright colors or black even when they are still basic.
