I´m not very skilled in creating magic items, so would you please check if I have chosen the right bases of calculation? Use-activated or continuous: spell level x caster level x 2000 gp x 2 (because duration of the spell is 1 min/level) 1 x 1 x 2000 gp x 2 = 4000 gp Is this right or is a higher cl needed? Should this be a ring or better a wondrous item?

Part of the problem is that they provide bonuses to things that are already stated out as using alternate pricing methods. In general, Enlarge Person goes for around 10,000 gp, at least. I would assume a Reduce Person should go for a similar price. Note, Reduce Person is a REALLY powerfull spell if you are a rogue that throws things. You get nice bonuses to Hide, AC, and to hit, while only taking a minor penalty to your strength for damage (weapon damage remains the same for ranged weapons). Note, don't get grappled.
