(This is the equivalent of going to a jeweler and trying to buy a 10-carat diamond.  You simply aren't allowed near it unless you're a real customer.  Also, items like this are in private hands, and may be selling them to maintain their station)Higher than that is going to be commissioned.  If you could find a person who could make a Staff of Power, or a Helm of Brilliance, they still might not, since those are weapons of Mass Destruction, and local law might have something to say about it.  They really have to sought after in a quest.  These items take substantial magical energy (XP), and months to build.  No one would build one without a really good reason.</blockquote>
