So a batch of the WBL details, have shone up recently.

**
Reddit's WBL page
**
**WBL does have some more stuff to work out, but that guy is a good start.
a) ... average distribution of monsters from 1-20 levels
b) ... the ~walking around money per monster is easy , but then a*b
c) ... guesstimate distribution about how many how much magic items
edit see enworld link below = good start on it
d) ... the selling magic items table is an easy enough calculation,
I'll do it soon, maybe tonight edit DONE see below
e) ... some rough in guideline for crafting
f) ... some pre-rough in guideline for what items you'd really or mandatorily (!) want , 'course this is standard wotc C.O. work
edit see Nunku's thread = good start
a , c , and e , are A LOT of work

That is where I got the magic item 'average' from, but someone else ran the numbers for treasure (coins, art, gems, etc) from the Hoards.

** Selling Magic Items ... there's 6 paragraphs for it.
Gateway 1) ... have to find a City or dmfiat
1a ... ho hum lets go to the "market" today, again
Gateway 2) ... Investigation DC 20 check for each magic item ; dm ought to keep this secret
2a ... Rogue 11 with Cha 14, Prof, Expertise = dc 20
Gateway 3) ... bonus to d100 roll with Persuasion DC X for each magic item ; dm ought to keep this secret , Improves(!) the numbers below
3a ... Rogue 11 / X 5 with Cha 20, Prof, Expertise = dc 27 before extra dice roll buffs get added
Gateway 4) ... average amount below cost for sale
4a Common ................. 66%
4b Uncommon ............. 52%
4c Rare ......................... 38%
4d Very Rare ................ 29%
4e Legendary + Artifact sales require adventure or quest, with no guidelines (dmfiat)
Gateway 5) ... flat chance that a +25% cost "Shady" is available
Gateway 6) ... Shady results may (dmfiat) cause Legal Problems
So it's a minigame with side adventures, maybe 50% is a random median guesstimate for magic item sales.
Interesting that that's how it shakes out.
My 1st glance opinion , is to sell Uncommons and Rares for more crafting material as necessary.
Gygaxian DM sense, is you can choose to Not Sell, but "S"omebodies know you have the goods, and might be mad or have connections.
