"Cool" gear for bribes and trades.

[simonmark6]

There are many situations in the TK2 where PCs either have the opportunity to trade with people or make bribes to smooth the way.

Obviously food, ammunition, weapons and so on make good things to trade but I was wondering about what less obvious things might make for good trades.

As an example, when I played FtF it was taken that Eastern PACT troops and ORMOs really wanted to get their hands on a Western-made high-capacity semi-automatic pistol, preferably with a chrome finish. Western body armour was also in high demand. What Soviet gear might NATO troops consider "cool"or desirable?

So my question is, what else might be considered "cool" among the world's post apocalyptic survivors? I know it's trivial but I always find the little colour details help make a game memorable.
