Hi everyone,
Our party just entered Waterdeep with a whole bunch of magic loot to unload and we naturally want to sell everything as close to full market price as possible. But our DM says we can only sell magic items for half price.
Now barring any regional, or seasonal, or situational influences that the DM may wish to impose on current market values, the PHB tells us that most equipment can be sold for 1/2 it's listed value, and that comodoties can be sold for full price. What about magic items?
There is a lot in the books on determining Market Value for magic items, but we could not find where it says that players can SELL them for that amount. Are we missing something?
Of course I am asking this question from the point of view of the actual rules, and not rule 0 (which will probably win in our case) !
Thanks for any help.
P.S. The general feeling in our gaming circle right now is that some kind of CHA based roll, like Diplomacy, should determine what you can sell magic items for, but somewhere near the Market Value. We won't mind making the die rolls because the value of these things are not insignificant.
