Notice all the prices that are adjusted by caster level? Now notice all the prices that aren't.  If it's not one of the things that have a level-based cost, then I don't see where caster level actually has an effect. Look at items like Pearl of Power. They are all at the same caster level, but it's not used at all in the price calculation formula. Look at the stat boosting items, some of them have different caster levels (gauntlets of ogre power: caster level 6; Gloves of Dexterity: caster level 8), but that doesn't affect the price, only the total stat bonus does.  If the item isn't casting/duplicating a spell, then the caster level doesn't have any bearing on the price, even if we all agree that it should have at least a minor effect. Confirm or Deny?</blockquote>
