Could someone please point me out an equippable magic item that improves Spot and Listen checks, as well as its source?
So, according to the rules for making magic items, lets say a headband that would give you a +10 competence bonus to Spot and Listen would cost 25,000 gold pieces (10,000 for the first skill boost, and another 10,000 for the second but with a 50% increase, which is 15,000, for a total of 25,000).ESTIMATING MAGIC ITEM GOLD PIECE VALUES

Benefit: You get a +2 bonus on all Listen checks and Spot checks.
Special: The master of a familiar gains the benefit of the Alertness feat whenever the familiar is within arm’s reach.
Wish said:Moonstone Mask, from Magic of Faerun (page 163). It's a 3.0 book, but other than changing the pricing some, should be fine.
Gives +5 spot and listen, and darkvision as a bonus. Takes the same slot as a pair of lenses. 3.0 cost was 12k gold, but probably more in 3.5.
For a much smaller bonus, there's always the luckstone and pale green prism ioun stone, each of which add +1 to all skills (among other things).
Elephant said:Goggles of Darkvision cost 16,000 gp in 3.5e, so this mask would definitely need a price increase.
