[QUOTE="Uriel, post: 1170942, member: 8222"] I agree about the price between character being a simple thing as far as what one will pay the other. A skill that affects that outcome isn;t a fair thing in the overview of a courteous RPG. That beng said, haggling is still being hashed out. I don't feel that Rogues and bards should get it as a class skill and others not get it simply because Haggling is a basic skill that everyone (less today,with set prices on goods in stores) engages in. Fighters are always on the lookout for the best price on their armor,weapons, rangers trade furs for food,weapons, even barbarians (who wouldn't get Profession as a Class skill) would use a barter system, thus having haggling ingrained in their culture. My chart was a quickly thrown together thing (Thels knows, it was middle of the night here, and I was on pain killers as we discussed it). For those worried that high Level PCs will lord their skill ranks etc over poor 1st level Traders/merchants, i can assure you (as a sensible DM and as a judge) that the Merchant with the ready-cash to buy even your lowly +1 sword will hardly be 1st Level. Putting together a fair (and easy) system for haggling wit DCs/oppossed rolls will take a little time, but i have time right now. As far as the goods you found, let's use my system, since there isnt yet an 'official' one in place. A merchant offers for the following: the +1 Warhammer: 75% or 1734GP for the Potion of Bull's strength: 50% or 150GP for the potion of CMW 100% or 300GP. Potion Resist Energy :75% 225GP it should be easy enough now to split the cash up and let you folks equip etc before running off on the next adventure. So to recap 6048GP Warhammer: 1734 P Bulls strength 150GP p CMW 300GP p Resist Energy 225GP Grand Total: 8,457GP Divided six ways: 1,409GP, 5 SP each. Now if any want to buy those potions, you have fair values. Thels, you had a higher amount, but it looked as if your division was for 5, when there were 6 of you. The XP was [COLOR=yellow]1575 XP each[/COLOR] btw, Both myself and CS (who was Judging) thought you all rooleplayed exellently, congrats. [/QUOTE]
