Subject: "Normal" everyday items
Date: Mon, 16 Aug 1999 21:27:40 -0400 (EDT)
Ok, this is justa note I wanted to post. I've seen it come up a couple
times in the recent (and now unnamable) threads, and it's come up with my
home group as well, so I figured UI'd clarify.

People have often asked why there are very few "Normal, Everyday" items in
SR books. By this, I pretty much assume they mean basic Trid sets, radios,
CD Players, VCRs, Can Openers, Home Appliances, etc.

The answer is, grab a Sears Catalog or the equivalent, and use those prices.

Inflation being what it is, 1999 US prices are NOT equal to UCAS/CAS prices
in 2060. But, todays US Dollar is about equal to the 2060 Nuyen. ($5 UCAS
equals 1 Nuyen).

Have fun :]
