Default Re: Judging loot's value

In general, I don't require a roll to get the list price of things that are standard, mundane, regular list items. 10' poles, swords that are in shop-quality condition, etc.

I'll give a general comment if it's in terrible shape, or decorated and pretty, or if someone with Magery detects magic on it, but without rolling I don't give any $$ hints. Any modifiers I require the usual rolls to identify precisely, and I include the "usual" value as part of that. They can infer rusty swords are probably not going to sell well, but without rolling they won't find out that it's rusty but actually Fine and an Armory roll at -4 and $200 on materials will fix it right up to Fine quality again.
