rain jacket colour

[outdoor_matt]

Hi guys I'm condering getting a good quality rain jacket, and I can find reasonably priced shells that are lightly used on kijiji (like craigslist). Im looking at an Arcteryx Beta in black, for almost half the price of brand new. Only thing is I can find it in either dark blue or black. Do you guys consider colour when buying rain gear? I know black sticks out pretty good in some areas, but I'd like to use it as a windbreaker shell as well. Should I wait to find one in like a grey or brown?

Thanks

I would just get the one you can afford. Most guys want an earth tone color for their solids but I don't feel it matters. I'd buy the black if that's all there is.
