So moving a cloak of charisma to a bracer of charisma is free and takes just a simple casting of the spell. Moving that charisma bonus to bracers of dexterity you have to pay the additional cost for adding a secondary ability.  Given that you don't need to be able to cast Eagle's Splendor or have Craft Wonderous Item, I was charging full creation cost.So yes even without the necessary requirements you act as if you were creating the item not buying it from a store.  I need to specify that, unless you think it is too much.Note however that if I sell an item at 50% to a merchant in Orussus and I do possess all the feats/spells/reqs to create it again, I can do it and only loose out on XP and CP.  GP comes out fine in the end.  Throw in a Trader and you are making money, throw in characters willing to donate XP and CP (re-proposal pending) and this spell will actually cost more than just doing it yourself.Regarding limiting it to items. At first I agreed completely, but then I thought about it.  Wouldn't it be cool to allow this spell to create some of those more powerful effects like a potion of healing and strength or a wand that could cast either cure light or cure mod drawing from a different pool of charges for each one (yes that is almost a staff).  you'd have to pay the cost for secondary effects though.  Eh, while cool I agree that it'd probably be easier to manage/balance if restricted.Recharging~Here are the two examples listed in rechargingWand of Cure Light WoundsMax Charges: 50Base Cost: 750gpCreation Cost: 375gp + 30xp + 1 day (or some craft points)Creation Cost per charge: 7.5gp + 0.6xp + 1 day (or some craft points)Current Charges: 10Desired Charges: 40Creation Cost for 40 charges: 300gp + 24xp + 1 day (or some craft points)Ring of WishesMax Charges: 3Base Cost: 97,950gpCreation Cost: 11,475 gp + 15,918 XP + 98 days (or some craft points)Creation Cost per charge: 3825gp + 5306xp + 33 days (or some craft points)Current Charges: 1Desired Charges: 2Creation Cost for 2 charges: 7650gp + 10,612xp + 66 days (or some craft points) - I had made a mistake on days to craft in the example above.I choose these two because they covered the spectrum of difficulty. A 1st level wand is simple to calculate, the item with an XP cost is the most difficult.  Luckily the SRD specifies creation cost for all items with added XP components.</blockquote>
