[QUOTE="Pyrex, post: 3495014, member: 11600"] *ponders* As written, it's a bit wonky. The concept is still workable as a low-level spell though. Or perhaps even a cheap magical item. Posit the following spell instead. [i]Drawmij's Order Form[/i] Level: 2 Conjuration(Teleportation) Components: V, S Casting Time: 1 standard action Range: Touch Target: One Touched Parchment Duration: Instantaneous Saving Throw: None Spell Resistance: No Functions as per [i]Teleport Object[/i] as follows. The object to be teleported must be a single sheet of parchment weighing no more than one pound. The destination must be a specially-prepared "inbox" worth 1000gp that the caster has personally observed. [b]Drawmij's Shipping Company[/b] In order to make use of the shipping companies services, a wizard visits the nearest location, examines their "inbox" and establishes an account with an initial deposit of not less than 2000gp. Afterward, whenever the caster submits an order via the [i]Order Form[/i] spell they will be contacted within an hour with an estimate of delivery time via a [i]Sending[/i] spell (as long as the caster maintains a balance of at least 2000gp with the company the typical NPC fee for casting this sending is waived). Once the materials for the order have been gathered, they will be shipped to the caster by means of a [i]Teleport Object[/i] spell for a reduced fee of 500gp (This fee is waived if the caster maintains a balance of 5000gp or more). Shipping outposts are typically located in large cities and can generally procure items worth 10gp or less individually within minutes and items worth 1000gp or less within a few hours. Items worth more than 1000gp are generally special-order and crafted as orders arrive, resulting in a delivery time of 1d8 days + 1day per 1000gp in value. [/QUOTE]
