Trading - Basic Goods & Precious Merchandise, Part I

First of all, if keeping the general format of the goods-list from the
OD&D Mystara-setting outlined in Gaz. In mind, one would have to come up
with similar lists of goods suitable for a SJ-campaign.

[Following is a brief summary of the workings of the mercantile trade
system found in the above mentioned products]

O==(=====>

 The goods are divided into two tables: "Trade Goods" & "Precious
Merchandise".

"Trade Goods" are common wares with prices up to 500 GP per load (one
load being the standard or average shipment size of any particular
ware), and "Precious Merchandise" are more exotic wares with prices from
500 GP and up per load.

"Trade Goods" include common wood, oil, textiles, salt, beer & ale,
grain & vegetables, preserved fish, hides & furs, tea, coffee & tobacco,
animals, pottery, wine & spirits, preserved meat, common metals, dye &
pigments, cloth, weapons & tools, monsters, glassware, semiprecious
stones.

"Precious Merchandise" include mounts, precious wood, fine porcelain,
rare books, armor, ivory, spices, silk, rare furs, precious metals,
