[QUOTE="Voadam, post: 1153233, member: 2209"] Usually hand waving down time Sell you get half. Craft to sell you get full price. First you need to find a buyer, usually custom order (they pick what they want you to make). Generic pawning is at 1/2 price but sold quickly, but selling non custom orders for full price takes time and effort in addition to crafting expenses and not always sell all before you need to go if roleplaying out realistic numbers. 1 C, pawning loot, only done at the magic shop, blacksmiths don't buy magic swords, they sell mundane ones they create, they are not middlemen purchasers but crafters. Not always an option, but for handwaving, can sell up to a certain price no problem, guaranteed. 2 could be A-D requires roleplaying and skill use (profession merchant? diplomacy and sense motive opposed roll? appraise?) maybe not even find a single buyer, maybe attract thief guild attention. 3 A-C Mixing and matching is a little tough to justify the reasoning. He has spent the time to be a crafter and set up a full business, but he might not sell them all and again like 2 issues come up about haggling etc. For handwaving, he can get guaranteed half price for loot but full price for guaranteed made by him potions. 4 A he crafts and does middleman buying to sell at full price full time professionally. 5 I would go with half market price, but roleplayed out, could be a scam. Trading among PCs in the game I play in we value loot magic at sale price (1/2 market price) and an npc in the same situation would and have been treated the same. [/QUOTE]
