Pathfinder Society Item Purchase with PA

[Andrew Besso]

The Pathfinder Society guide to organized play describes free purchase, 750 gp for 2 PA points. A character may purchase 1 item this way. Is the character limited to a 750 gp item, or can s/he spend more PA for a more expensive item? That is, could a character spend 4 PA for a 1500 gp item?

No. 750 max.

Along these same lines, can a character buy more than one item with his PA?

Is there a good list of what characters CAN buy with PA? I know there's a list of spells and the cost in the Guide, but not sure about other items, or the quantity of items we can buy.

Never mind... I searched around and read some posts, I think I have a handle on this one now :)

You already found it, but for anyone else wondering... once per scenario.

To my knowledge there is no restriction on how many or how often a player can spend PA in a single scenario.

However you cannot spend additional PA to increase the value of a single item bought and you cannot gain more than one item with each individual PA purchase.

or less from your faction by spending the appropriate PA. Items
purchased this way are worth 0 gp and cannot be sold.

Only applies to burning it for items, not spending prestige in general.

Thanks ithuriel. What a rookie mistake to forget to check the table :)
