Its a skill he has learned and can use whenever he wants. He can use this skill unconditionally (even if the DC is too high to succeed, he can still use it) The character who bought the item can lose it, have it destroyed, have it supressed (in antimagic fields) and so forth. He cannot use it unconditionally. Keep that in mind. That is what the character gets for his investment. While the other invests via money. Money that could have been spent on something else. Remember all these factors are already accounted for in the current system.</blockquote>
