one of my players wants to buy a shed, just a simple small shed you would find in a modern day backyard and i have no idea how much to price that at, what do you guys think?
It's just wood, nails, and man-hours, really. Nothing resource-heavy. Nowadays, we can buy a sword for £200, and a shed for £400, and swords are probably cheaper in the world of fantasy where people make them more often, so 2x to 4x a sword cost is probably about a good ballpark.
Per the PHB, a carriage costs 100 gp. I’d say that’s probably roughly the same size as a shed. Carriage has windows and more doors and, of course, wheels. So a lot more moving parts. A shed is also something every farmer is going to have, so it can’t really be too pricey. I’d probably go with something like the 30 thoruckduckslayer suggests.

Maybe like 100-200 gold, wouldn’t be a ton, but also it’s not a magic item.
thank you that does sound reasonable
A simple, small shed? Probably about 30gp.

That is a rather fair comparison honestly, thank you everyone
