The Gorean Price List
The following is a tentative price list. As prices fluctuate between quality and location on Earth, so should they on Gor. This is just a guideline. N/A means I had nothing to base this on in Earth terms (ie: there are no riding birds on Earth like a tarn)
CTb = Copper Tarsk bit
CT = Copper Tarsk
ST = Silver Tarsk
GT = Gold Tarn
Dwt GT = Double Weight Gold Tarn
"Prices, of course, tend to fluctuate with given markets and seasons. If there are few such on the market in a given time, their prices will tend to be proportionately higher." HUNTERS OF GOR, Pg. 32
A golden tarn disk was a small fortune. It would buy one of the great birds themselves, or as many as five slave girls." TARNSMEN OF GOR, Pg. 191
"The tarn I had sold in Kasra, for four golden tarn disks." TRIBESMEN OF GOR, Pg. 43
