About this converter
Balamb and Timber shops run 100 to 10000 gil on fixed lists. Junction scrolls need the Familiar shop ability, and Haggle cuts lists by a quarter. Potion and Antidote open at 100, G-Potion at 200, Hi-Potion, Phoenix Down and G-Returner at 500, G-Hi-Potion at 600, Pet House and Amnesia Greens at 1000, Magic and GF Scrolls at 5000 and the Junction scrolls at 10000. That makes one HP-J Scroll one hundred Potions. Pet goods and junction manuals outprice field medicine ten to one. Every figure here is the list price from the shop tables.
How to use it
Pick two items and a unit in the top row. The three boxes below stay linked. Change any box and the other two update. Try 1 HP-J Scroll against Potions to see the one hundred to one junction tax.
Haggle ability cuts these lists by a quarter where shown and stays out; list is rowed. Junction scrolls need the Familiar shop ability first. Pet Pals volumes and Chocobo gear sell on pet shelves and stay out. Pet Pals magazines and Chocobo goods run their own shelves and stay out of this medicine-led table.
