Some enchantments are listed as having a flat cost rather than a bonus cost (+1, +2, etc.) when looking at armor and weapon enchantments.
Under the special abilities table they are categorized as being +1, +2, etc. but in the price column it just says "+4,000 GP" (glamered weapon enchant for example) as opposed to "+1 Bonus" (bane weapon enchant for example). So here's where I start to get confused...
At the bottom of the table it says "Add to enhancement bonus on the Weapon Pricing by Bonus table to determine total price."
Well, there is no listed bonus for these, they are under a bonus category, but aren't listed as having that bonus. If you look it up by itself (the full text of the enchantment) it doesn't list a bonus, just says cost 4,000, craft cost 2,000.
So I have a couple questions:
Is glamered a +1 bonus, + 4,000 GP on top of that, or is it just +4,000 GP and doesn't raise the overall 'bonus' of the weapon?
If glamered doesn't count as a bonus then does that mean that you can enchant a weapon with it without having first putting a +1 enchantment bonus on it?

Glamered is just a flat +4000 that doesn't raise the overall bonus of the weapon. They're in the chart with the +whatever bonuses for random generation purposes.
A weapon need to be enchanted to at least +1 before it can have any other special abilities added to it.
