01-27-07, 01:26 PM My players recently acquired 2 Sky Coachs in Sharn. They plan on keeping one and selling the other. So they asked me how much would they get for selling it. So, I flipped through my Sharn sourcebook, found information on Soarsleds, found information on magical Lifts...but did not find any information on Sky Coachs other than the cost of the fare.

Did I miss it or is there really no information on it? I found it odd that they would include the Item Creation information about a Lift but not a Sky Coach that a PC could potentially actually want to create or buy, or in this case, sell.

If there is no official source, has anyone come up with something? I'm horrible at estimating and figuring that sort of stuff out.

Thanks

My only input (without doing the calculation myself) is to look at what you would charge a PC craftsman to make the thing and then offer that as a base bargaining price (it's used anyway).

I believe (though I havnt looked at it) that the Xendrik book should have the details of the smaller elemental vessels (used by the Darke Elves).

I'm not really familiar with the skycoaches so that's about all the help I can offer. :(
