This used to be how I thought of things. However:

People trade for items not solely based on rarity, but because of demand, too.

Nobody will trade for some obscure underwater item, no matter how rare it is. However, things like headdresses are traded for because people want them. People trade lots for spikes because the community gives them their worth. When people start trading more and more for items because they want them, and that makes them worth more. Nobody is going to use an ugly-looking item that's underwater.

I would point out more things, but LBD22 got all my points.
