Here's a little idea I had to spice up my Traveller campaign. It's the result of too many years reading
the Wall Street Journal & too many late nights gaming wondering 'how do they set these prices?'.
This is the newest version, replacing the old, lost version that exists only in a few incomplete notes.
I decided to cover the basics (and in some cases just generalities) among some types of
commodities. Also, I've excluded some synthethics( mostly fabrics ) and chemicals. Still, I hope
fellow Travellers find it interesting & hopefully, useful.
