Very fine silver weapons prices--ouch!

As ericbsmith said GCA 4 is following the description for the price increase as described in GURPS Basic Set Characters, I sent a note about it to the errata coordinator to see if it can be clarified/changed. It is, of course, possible that they won't think a change is needed.

Again, I don't know of someone actually coating both a good and a very fine iron/steel sword with silver and comparing how much it costs to coat one compared to coating the other. My opinion that it would not cost 20 times to coat one blade than another of the same size but different quality is largely conjecture. But I do still think it wouldn't.
