NPCs have way more treasure than monsters if you follow the table on the DMG...so this means that they can have all the useless crap, and your PCs can have a decent income even if they sell all of it at half price. You can still say ''this item isn't allowed/doesn't exist'' so I don't really think that searching is something more than flavor. You can keep that flavor by telling them when they gather info ''Also you heard about an mythical sword, that a shopkeeper bought from some adventurers recently...everyone talks about how beautiful it looks'' and the sword may even be a +1 longsword with a +3 competence bonus on diplomacy checks...sure as hell rare, something worth mentioning and adds flavor. Now having the PCs search around for a bag of jumping caltrops... sure its rare, but who really cares...</blockquote>
