Item Rarity is the status added to the items to balance them aggainst the new ones. For today there are only 1 group of rare items: Vintage weapons
Standard items
These are the standard non-unlockable weapons that first shipped with the game, e.g. the Scattergun and the Rocket Launcher. These weapons are available to all players.
Unique items
These are standard unlockable items.
Vintage items
Vintage items are most of items that were obtained before the release of the Mann-Conomy Update. All existing items were changed from standard unique items to Vintage items to increase their appeal in trading, however, they bear no difference form regular weapons except their blue name and new "Vintage" prefix. Some items were excluded and not changed to Vintage, such as badges, promotional items such as Bill's Hat, and Holiday items such as the Ghastly Gibus. Other items such as the Vintage Tyrolean keep both their original name and the new prefix, resulting in the muddled title "Vintage Vintage Tyrolean". It remains to be seen if this is fixed by Valve.
Vintage items act the same as standard unique items, and can be crafted normally. As the number of Vintage items decreases over time by crafting and trading, their individual value will increase.
