Because of their crude materials and primitive craftsmanship, barbarian versions of items from the Player's Handbook equipment lists are worth only a fraction of their outworld values. Most barbarian equipment is worth 10-50% less than the Player's Handbook prices. A small barbarian tent might be worth 1 or 2 gp, a barbarian raft as little as 10 gp.
Food items generally have the same value. A pound of outworld salt and a pound of barbarian salt both fetch 1 sp. Rare foods, however, may be worth many times their listed values; a pound of pecans from a remote jungle might be worth as much as 5 gp.
Barbarian items made of valuable materials, such as ivory or obsidian, may bring more than their outworld equivalents. An ivory signal whistle may be worth several gp. Likewise, collectors may pay inflated prices for items with exotic decoratin a clay bowl maybe worth only a few cp, but intricate designs may boost its value to 10 gp or more.
