I thought I read something somewhere that said selling magic items nets only a percentage of the market price. I think it was 50-70%.

Does this ring any bells? I'm trying to find the reference.

Generally, magic items sell for 50% of the price listed in the PHB. Not sure where the reference is though.

Yes, you typically sell stuff at 1/2 the listed buy price.
Check out "Selling Loot" at the bottom of the Wealth and Money section of the SRD.

Thanks.

I also found a reference to 50% in the Magic Item Compendium, p. 232.

PHB pg 112, under "selling loot"

In general, a character can sell something for half its listed price.
Characters who want to upgrade to better armor or weaponry, for
example, can sell their old equipment for half price.

Trade goods are the exception to the half-price rule.
