They're just different rarities used to categorize items around the site.

The FAQ has a breakdown of item rarities - link to items section

many of these words are de facto meaningless descriptors there to just provide color. The actual distribution of items on-site does not match strictly with rarity number or the FAQ. An obvious way in which rarity number is irrelevant is some items are price supported and are made artificially more rare so that the site can force people to buy things from other users that they otherwise wouldn't buy at some determined-by-the-site sP price.. Knowing what these words exactly mean may be fun to try to guess, but they won't affect you if you ignore them.

The best way to find out for sure if an item is special in some way is to look it up on the fansite SubetaLodge or in the Item Directory Building (if it is there, not all items are)..

For instance this item is r175 a Holiday Item, but it is available from the Millionaire Center which the table above says should have a rarity of 105 Artefact. also available from the MC is r160. r160 has lots of things it is listed that it could be, but Millionaire Center is not one of them. I picked these randomly from the first line of the MC they are not special examples I cooked up.
