5E: Magic items GP value.

As a sort of generic pricing, what are people's views about the GP value of things like +1 swords etc.



I appreciate this can be seem as gameworld specific, so prices could vary wildly. However, given that magic items in general are far rarer in 5E than other editions, I would say that the value of magic items must be far greater, if you can find any to buy.



One of the characters wanted to get a magical Short Sword, so I put one one as belonging to the Trader in Hommlett.



He sold it to the character at an exorbitant price of 10,000 GP, which was a large % of the coin value of what they got out of the Moathouse.



It was the shop owner's personal item and very distinctive in appearance, so they will be identifiable fairly easily to the right people.



The party also sold the Necklace they got in the Moathouse, which was the Boss Cleric's badge of office, so as detailed in the Scenario, the Shop owner, who is actually working for the Evil elemental cult, will pass on they killed the cleric and a high level assassin will go after the party as retribution.

The scenario says the Assassin is 10th level, I'll probably drop that to about level 7.

The party is nearly level 5.



Anyway, in PF, a +1 magic Short Sword comes in at about 2,000 gp.

I charged 5 times that, but then it was a seller's market, given the remote location and the rarity of magic items.



Also, given they weren't really any places near that could reasonably sell magic items in general and there were no training costs etc, there's not a lot for the party to spend money on apart from potions really.



Excessive? About right? Depends?
