When you are buying items, your cost is dependent on the "sells at" rate of the merchant, modified by your charisma and reputation modifiers. You can find those modifiers on the following charts: | When you are buying items, your cost is dependent on the "sells at" rate of the merchant, modified by your charisma and reputation modifiers.

Price = Raw Value * Merchant Sells At * (Reputation Mod + Cha Mod)/100 | Then your total buying price is found by the following formula: | ||
:Price = Raw Value * Merchant Sells At * (Reputation Mod + Cha Mod)/100 | |||
For example, if you are buying a dagger +1, which has a raw value of 300 gp, and you have a 15 reputation and and 19 charisma, and the merchant sells at 140%, then your total price should be: | For example, if you are buying a dagger +1, which has a raw value of 300 gp, and you have a 15 reputation and and 19 charisma, and the merchant sells at 140%, then your total price should be: | ||

For selling items, the formula is much more basic. It is simply a matter of how many the merchant already has. If he has 0 of the items, then he will buy it for 30% of its price. If he has 1 of the items, he will buy it for 25%. If he has more than 1, then he will buy it for 20%. If the number he owns is unlimited, that is counted as 0 (so he will buy it for 30%. | For selling items, the formula is much more basic. It is simply a matter of how many the merchant already has.
