Default How rare is Raven Black...
...and how does it differ from Brilliant Black? I am looking to purchase a Black TT but can't seem to find any in my area to get a closer look at and pictures just don't seem do the colors justice. I found a Raven Black one that fits what I'm looking for and my price range but it's about 1000 miles from me and I don't want to pull the trigger until I know what I'm buying.

Default Raven is metallic, Brilliant isn't
Don't think either could be considered "rare" other than other colors are a bit more popular than black in general.

Default I think Raven is less popular than Brilliant Black. I believe Raven is a metal flake finish where
Brilliant is not.

Default Raven Black has a gold metal flake in the paint, so it has a soft warm tone to it. Brilliant...
black is a flat black and it's a harder edge to it.

Less common than Raven Black but still far from a rare color on North American market TTs.
