There's obviously room for exploitation, but all the GM has to do is not be a robot just say "OK, no, I'm not going to let you buy 20 potions of a Paladin's Lesser Restoration." It's not exactly hard to see that kind of cheese coming. This is a difference of 1050G, but if I could spend that much to increase the DC of my spells by 3 points, I'd pay it in a heartbeat. I'm a bit confused why this would be heresy. The price would be lower if you used the CL and Spell Level of the Druid, but so would the duration (by 40 minutes), and so would the saving throw if you targeted an elemental with it (by 3). So even if a Scroll of say Control Water was crafted by a 9th level Druid, it costs as much as if it were by a 13th level Wizard because it defaults to Sorc/Wizard for appearing on both spell lists? Because Control Water pretty obviously belongs to Druids before an arcane caster - not to mention now it's a Divine Scroll, which is a whole new set of factors. In my universe summoners sell it at the same price wizards do, because that's their competition and they can sell it for higher price. But special ordering it from a specific class because the item creation rules (which are intended as guidelines for GMs not players) say it should be cheaper that way.no, doesn't fly with me.
Special ordering an item is one thing, that's me allowing you get items that are normally in a city of that size by having someone make it especially for you. Only a maneuver that is currently readied and unexpended may be used.
Initiating a maneuver can be likened to that of a spell being cast or psionic power manifested. It's cheesy, and we all know controlling wealth is important to controlling the power level of groups. It may require an immediate, swift, move, standard, or even a full- round action to initiate. It's not impossible then that finding a Class that learns a spell at a lower level for a cheaper item isn't doable. How about something like Knowledge (Local) or Diplomacy to Gather Info to find a caster of the class you want (DC based on the price of the item/modification weighed against the size of the city you're in) one check represents one week of downtime searching]? I've always been a fan of "Special ordering" magic items, usually for stuff like a wand of Cure Light Wounds with a CL of 5 for 1d8+5 instead of 1d8+1, which would cost 3750G (much more than a standard wand, but still less than a Wand of Moderate), you just need to find the right guy to make the special order. Otherwise, you absolutely don't get to cherry pick who made the item to try and get it cheaper. The only way I would ever let it work is if you are a summoner crafting the item yourself.
