Receiving a request (and material costs) to upgrade a Belt of Physical perfection from +2 to +4 from Thorim Greybeard, Bob realizes he needs to learn a couple spells.
Looking around the city, he rapidly finds some wizards with spellbooks that contain the spells he would like.
Spending 2 downtime days (24 remain) and 270gp (2/3 for scribing costs, 1/3 payment to book owners), Bob copies down Bull's Strength (60 gp, 3 hours), Cat's Grace (60 gp, 3 hours), Invisibility (60 gp, 3 hours), Glitterdust (60 gp, 3 hours), Protection from Evil (15 gp, 2 hours), Feather Fall (15 gp, 2 hours).

Base Cost: 48,000
Gold cost to me: 22,800 || 48000/2=24,000 -> 24,000*.95=22,800
