I believe the official ruling is that items are only items when they're in front of you; cards in your hand or only that - cards.

The discrepancy comes with the fact that to gain levels you can sell items worth 1000g or more, including "items in your hand."

However, does this still apply to anything involving worth?

For example, if you're required to pay Income Tax, which specifically says to discard items, not cards, worth that specified amount. Or, another example, you have the Dungeon Casino which needs 500g worth of items discarded to activate. Can you throw out potions and other cards with worth out of your hand to feed these types of cards, or ONLY actual items out in front of you?

What it boils down to: is the worth on cards in your hand only good for selling towards a level?
