It depends. Did I learn Gentle Repose, and is that staff worth more than 2,500 gp?
It’s an artifact level magic item. It’s worth considerably more than 2500 gp. Probably closer to 100,000-200,000 gp
Side note: you subconsciously pilfer for the proletariat? Sounds like a tough gig. Your ire is likely well-placed, and I support your low-altitude efforts. 🤘🏼
