To my players, at least try not to say "I use 300 gp of herbs for this ritual." Please?
Can I suggest that a compromise would be to essentially replace scrolls with the rare components you need. Scrolls of rituals are readily available and cheap, but it is the components (scrolls) or foci (books) that must be collected or purchased.
That way, characters can simply note:
Wyrm liver (Raise Dead), bear galbladder (Cure Disease), cobra venom gland (Detect Secret Doors), an ounce of pixie dust (Arcane Lock).
