Hy, I need help from some Magical Artisan guru here around...

My little Puck of the Old Forest, a gnome wizard walking around temples of the evil god Orcus is struggling against magical traps and magical runes, therefore I thought to forge a pair of glasses that grant him see magic...how much cost this object??
I would like a continuous effect involving the cantrip and I'm thinking to 1000 gp and 40 xp, what do you think about??

Thanks for your advice!!

0.5(SL) x 1(CL) x 2000(continuous) x 2(duration) = 2000gp + 80xp.

Isn't that 2000gp Market Price; ie, 1000gp + 80xp to create? At least, that's how I'd price it. *shrug*

The 2000gp is the base price, yes, the market price. To craft this item would cost half of the base price in gold and 1/25 of the base price in experience (as per the DMG guidelines). So your numbers to create (1000gp + 80xp) are correct. The item would take 2 days to create.
