    or places described in this article is not read ily available, the rent prevailing within

    any reasonable time before or after the time described or at any other place or for a

    different lease term which in commercial judgment or under usage of trade would

    serve as a reasonable substitute for the one des cribed may be used, making any

    proper allowance for the difference, including the cost of transporting the goods to

    or from the other place.

    market is in issue, reports in official publications or trade journals or in newspapers

    or periodicals of general circulation published as the reports of that market are

    shown to affect its weight but not its admissibility.
