So, they're basically a miniature bag of holding then... hmm... possibilities...

I may be wrong but I think the assumption is that you have the components for all the spells you can cast not for all spells in existence. I always took it to mean that you kept it stocked as you went about your business day to day.

It's not that all those things are in there. The assumption is that the caster has whatever spell components he needs without the player having to do the boookkeeping.

Well, someone has to be the Most Well-Prepared Caster out there...

I will point out that 'an arrow or crossbow bolt' and 'a lantern' will not be found in a spell component pouch. The material components must be items that can fit into a pouch. A pouch is typically described as able to hold about 3 apples at most.
So, despite the apparently infinite items that can fit and be held by a non-magical, off-the-shelf spell component pouch, there's still some that won't be found in it.
Iv always pictured belt pouches to be a little bigger then the standard dice bag, wider mouth opening, maybe 1 apple big... but thats just me and with no research into the matter, i just have alot of dice bags and picture my character with like 6 of those strapped to his belt...

Spell component pouches are primarily for use by chefs.

Yeah, I'm mostly doing this to point out the sheer absurdity of everything actually being there. Even if we just go with "everything a wizard that can cast 9th-level spells would need", which I think would be the longest list, the amount is kinda absurd.
Only info about the actual size of the pouch is that it weights 2 lbs (when empty I guess) and can "be strung onto a belt or bandolier". So I dunno, clearly kinda small for all this weird stuff. Especially if the caster would like to have multiple forms to transform into.
I also like to think that all of this is stuffed into the pouch without any separation. "Well I have no idea whether this is the glass marble or hollow metal ball, it's all covered in blood and guano".
Still going to continue this, though, just for my own amusement if nothing else.
Though I do like the lists Leathert if you have the patience to continue them. I'm copying and pasting them to word as I type.

This is the real reason wizards don't wear armor. Too much luggage.
One fun aspect of actually knowing what is in the spell component pouch is that occasionally one of the items will come in handy for a non-spell purpose.
Most GM's are not going to allow that to happen since you are not assumed to actually have all of those at the same time, plus that was not the intent of the pouch.

Yes, I meant the list of components required for the spells you can actually cast. So, that being said... what rationale could there possibly be for saying, 'nope you cannot use that magnifying glass to magnify things'?
The intent of the pouch was to simplify the component buying process... not to remove the components from the game entirely. If that was the case then the specific components should all be replaced with 'fairy dust' or some other material which can be purchased generically.
So long as 'Spider Climb' requires a living spider I can't see why any GM would rule that you do NOT have a live spider at any point in time other than when casting the spell. How could the spider be usable as a component for 'Spider Climb', but NOT as a target for 'Giant Vermin'?

"It's not a functional magnifying glass. It's a magical fetish that holds merely the essense of a magnifying glass. If you want a real magnifying glass, the rules say that it is 100gp."

"It's not a functional magnifying glass. It's a magical fetish that holds merely the essense of a magnifying glass. If you want a real magnifying glass, the rules say that it is 100gp."
Again, if someone is going to make up such a house rule then all material components might as well be replaced with 'fairy dust'.

That's really not a bad idea. It's not like you often see a system like d20's material components used in spells in fiction anyway. If they are used in fiction, it's not usually for fast combat magic, but for long rituals.

What house rule? A functional magnifying glass is 100 gp.. A spell component pouch doesn't contain any item with a specific cost.
Therefore, any magnifying glass that comes free in your pouch is usable as a spell focus item must not be the same functional magnifying glass that costs 100 gp.
Someone asks for a fluff justification and I gave one and then backed it up by explicit rules. Or, alternately, spend the 100 gp and buy the explicit, functional one.
Is it time to replace the spell component pouch with an arcane focus? Eschew materials would become Eschew Focus and the only spells requiring material components would be the ones requiring valuable components.

That is not what I was saying. I was saying the items only exist for the purpose of casting spells. You have the items the spells you specifically cast, not every spell in your book. As an example the arcanist can change which spell is prepared. The GM is not going to say if you change your prepared spell you can now have this new item, and use it for something besides casting the new spell.

My understanding of the 'specific cost' statement has always been that the pouch cannot contain any material component with a cost specified in the spell description. If it is instead taken to mean, as suggested here, any item with a cost specified anywhere then you would have bizarre situations where 'live spider' is allowed... up until the point someone offers to sell the PCs one for a copper in a random module.
In the specific case of the magnifying glass... I believe the spells which use one have something like a 'small magnifying glass'. That is... it is presumably not the same as the 100 gp version. More like a kid's prize from a crackerjack box. The point was that it would, in fact, magnify things. Likely not as well as the expensive one, but if it didn't magnify anything it wouldn't be a magnifying glass. These are actual objects which have actual properties... not mystic fairy dust constructs which exist ONLY to empower spells. If you are playing otherwise then YES that is very much a house rule.
The GM is not going to say if you change your prepared spell you can now have this new item, and use it for something besides casting the new spell.
Seems ludicrous to me. If you have the component for purposes of casting the spell then you have it for any other purpose as well.
The spell component pouch in the CRB is meant to simplify record keeping. It is an over-priced bag with the excess cost meant to represent the cost of continually procuring inexpensive items used in spell-casting. It is not a magical item which summons mystical components usable ONLY for spellcasting.

I'm not sure that makes a difference. If I change my prepared spells (or in the case of a wizard, take a minute to prep a spell in an unused slot), I would have the components to cast it, so how is that different from having the component because I prepped it in the morning?
Mostly, don't look too hard behind the curtain. Don't think about what's in the pouch, just use it.
My point is that the pouch's only purpose is to cast spells, and the game is assuming you have what you need to cast those spells. Anything more that than is not going to be allowed by most GM's. So any attempt to say "I could have cast this spell so I have item ____" is reaching.
You could also say the pouch is a 50 gp magic item that fills with the correct components when you prepare spells. As you cast spells, the components vanish. In theory, you could use the live spider from Spider Climb as the target for your Giant Vermin spell, but then you couldn't cast Spider Climb until you replaced the spider. Keeps your flavor and the ability to pull one-off stunts.
Personally, I'd be all for dumping the spell component mechanic as is. Many of the components are silly jokes, and aside from the absurdity of carrying all that in a pouch, there's also the absurdity of being able to fish out exactly the component you need in under a second.
Now, I could see simplifying it. Somebody above mentioned magic fairy dust, which might be on the right track. Say, each school of magic has its own component you use, so there's only eight items.
The Alchemist's Handbook has reagents, materials you use to give a little power boost to your spells. Like pure sulphur to add to Evocation damage, or myrrh to add to... healing spells? I forget, the book isn't nearby. But I really like that mechanic, and think it could replace standard components. You don'the need them, but if you buy them, you can use them for a little boost.
