[QUOTE="Stalker0, post: 8178079, member: 5889"] This is a good summary. That said, I think we have to remember that the gold cost of an item is a convenient game mechanic way to control power within a party, and does not have to have bearing on the world economy. I think its feasible that a well to do city might have access to mining and resources that could get them those materials more cheaply. Now if a PC wants to buy some chalk from the city supplies...normal price of course, but the city wouldn't truly be paying that amount of gold for it. But ultimately I think what this shows is that a teleportation circle would certainly be a major expense for "true cities", but is not so out of the realm of possibility that it makes no sense for them to be there, especially if a king at one point in history did a push for major cities to get one or something of that nature. Its the equivalent of Rome aqueducts and roads, a major investment in infrastructure that ultimately pays for itself many times over. [/QUOTE]
