Good news! Fiona rolled a 30 on her diplomacy check, and Ernis rolled a 1 on appraising the jewels and tried to rip us offwhile actually being ripped off himself, and Rose nailed him doing it and we bargained the CLW wand down to 500gp.
We landed 2380gp for the jewels + axes + shield, and after the wand that's 1880 gp. Erwin's sitting this out since he got 4000gp gloves, so the rest of you get 313gp.
The leftover 2 gp is a good meal for 4 people, so, uh, I'll drop that and another 1.5 of my own money taking us all out to dinner.
EDIT: I'm hanging on to the Ring of Featherfall for a bit. I don't really want it, but it's 2200 gp and it feels like a waste to sell it at half price, so I'm hoping we get the chance to exchange it later for something of similar value, if everyone's okay with that. (I don't think it's useful for any of us, but Rose at least gets Spider Climb next level.)As I move my vote

Some details about Act 2:
[16:55] Telephone Cat: What was the deal with the other prisoners? There's a part of me that sort of wants to go back with spells, just to see what a Charm Person or Protection From Evil would do, or if it'd work or not.
[16:55] Who: Oh they're dead now
[16:55] FakeGod: well, you know the strange whispers you guys were subjected to once in the dungeon?
[16:55] Telephone Cat: Yeah.
[16:56] FakeGod: You guys only got a small taste of it, but if you stay there too long, you start to lose sanity
[16:56] FakeGod: you start believing things
[16:56] FakeGod: that these frogmen are actually cool, and that you apparently had a daughter you never had
[16:56] Telephone Cat: Oh.
[16:56] Telephone Cat: Well, I feel shitty now.
[16:56] Who: Did you take them with you when you left the dungeon or did you just leave them behind?
[16:57] Telephone Cat: I think we left them.
[16:57] FakeGod: they beat them up and left them behind
[16:57] Who: They're dead now
[16:57] Telephone Cat: Sense motive can't distinguish between intentional lies and crazy?
[16:58] FakeGod: really high sense motive can[17:43] Telephone Cat: What can we sell the shield+jewels+greataxes for with +16 diplomacy?
[17:43] FakeGod: ok the magic shield and nonmagic greataxes?
[17:44] Telephone Cat: Yeah.
[17:44] Telephone Cat: Alternatively, is it possible to swap the shield for a magic item of equal value?
[17:45] FakeGod: nah, the merchant has to individually procure the items since most shipment don't come this route
[17:45] Telephone Cat: Ah, damn.
[17:46] FakeGod: depends on the diplo, but most likely 575g for shield, 4 greataxes = 40g
[17:46] FakeGod: Each jewel 20g
[17:46] Telephone Cat: Argh.
[17:46] Telephone Cat: Also, are trolls in this setting Knowledge Nature?
[17:46] FakeGod: yes
[17:47] FakeGod: local also works to some degree
[17:48] Telephone Cat: Will it be possible to trade in items for items of equivalent value later?
[17:48] FakeGod: in a bigger town or with a better stocked merchant, sure
[17:48] Telephone Cat: Wait. Don't we have 5 greataxes?
[17:49] FakeGod: oh
[17:49] FakeGod: 50g then
[17:50] Telephone Cat: Would Raintree be a better market?
[17:50] FakeGod: it is a bigger town, but trade routes to raintree have been disrupted atm
[17:51] Telephone Cat: Ah. Hmm.
[17:51] FakeGod: so I guess you'll find out![22:26] Andrius: to go back a bit though, I don't think I looked at the maps more than once in the actual session - I basically said "i don't know where we are" and left it at that
[22:26] Andrius: were there actual other routes/traps that we didn't hit or did we just get lucky with our route
[22:27] FakeGod: you guys took the "natural" route
[22:27] FakeGod: or the route you take if you intentionally do not deviate
[22:27] FakeGod: exploring the north side runs you into the red skinned toa warrior with his goons
[22:27] FakeGod: killing them first gets rid of the reinforcements in the final encounter
[22:27] Andrius: makes sense
[22:28] Dunnstral: what did the red skin guy do
[22:28] FakeGod: he gets 3 attacks per turn
[22:28] FakeGod: that's it
[22:28] Andrius: whoa
[22:28] FakeGod: yeah you gotta focus him down quick, which you guys did
[22:29] Andrius: out of curiosity
[22:29] Andrius: did you think i would kill that first guy we found
[22:29] FakeGod: I thought it could go either way for either of the prisoners tbh
[22:30] FakeGod: it should tip you guys off that something is up that these guys can breathe fine down there
[22:30] Andrius: right
[22:30] FakeGod: and you guys were suspicious of them because of that
[22:30] Andrius: the NAT 20 definitely helped
[22:30] FakeGod: yeah strong sense motives definitely helped out for sure
[22:30] Andrius: and 25ft of rope
[22:31] FakeGod: the other party trusted the second prisoner and ran straight into the 4 berserker ambush
[22:31] Andrius: good times
[22:31] FakeGod: indeed
[22:31] FakeGod: RL party beat them up and put them in the crates with the rest of the human meat[10:03] Telephone Cat: I dunno. I did find Fiona kind of annoying, both in-character and out, but on the other hand I do wish we had saved the brainwashed prisoners.
[10:04] Telephone Cat: I remember finding it weird out of character that Sigma knocked out the first one so easily if this was a trap.
[10:04] Telephone Cat: Would a Protection From Evil have done anything?
[10:05] FakeGod: Nah, you need something like remove curse
[10:06] Telephone Cat: Even temporarily?
[10:06] FakeGod: mmhm
[10:07] Telephone Cat: Uh...how did we get the girl out of the mines if she can't breathe air, anyway?
[10:07] Who: She can
[10:08] FakeGod: She can kinda breathe air, but she sucks at it. Master Howen figured out after awhile and now dunks her underwater to make her breathe easier.
[10:08] Telephone Cat: Ah.
[10:10] Telephone Cat: Was it possible to find out more about the other prisoners than we did?
[10:11] FakeGod: There is a line that they do not cross in their madness and deception.
[10:11] Telephone Cat: In retrospect Detect Magic could have probably told me that they were enchanted, not transmuted or disguised with an illusion. Except...they'd have also been transmuted over the waterbreathing thing.
[10:11] FakeGod: Their loyalty to Dagon
[10:12] FakeGod: Mentioning his name/insulting him etc gets a reaction out of them
[10:12] FakeGod: Detect magic reveals transmutation aura for the water breathing curse thing
[10:13] Telephone Cat: Yeah, we'd have concluded that transmutation = shapeshifting monster, 100%.
[10:13] FakeGod: Either way, killing the prisoners don't detract anything from the experience I think
[10:14] Telephone Cat: Well, in-character we still think they're...something seriously messed up that we couldn't let down our guard around, probably.
[10:14] Telephone Cat: Even Fiona turned on the second guy after her sense motive check.
[10:16] FakeGod: I do agree that Fiona should be more suspicious and less inclined to trust strangers, especially after the last set of NPCs they met spiked their drinks and slit her friend's throat
[10:17] Telephone Cat: I mean, she's not WRONG that we just stormed into the kuotoa's home and attacked them when they tried to run away.
[10:19] Telephone Cat: Hmm. What would have gone differently if we'd let them or the berserker slightly later escape?
[10:20] FakeGod: The latter groups are warned and they form up kill teams to find you guys and kill
[10:20] FakeGod: There are lots of side corridors they can use to flank and trap you guys in a room.
[10:24] FakeGod: so instead of just the first shaman group, you find the room empty (except Bengi, who try to trick you guys into staying this time), as every other monsters in the dungeon (minus the final room) move to trap the PCs in that room
[10:41] FakeGod: I also thought that scouting ahead with stealth characters would have been very strong if you guys decided to go for it in that particular dungeon, because kuo toas lack darkvision
[10:42] FakeGod: their locations are revealed ahead of time by lights, and makes scouting very easy and way less risky
[10:43] FakeGod: The intertwined side corridors make it relatively easy to navigate around kuotoa enemy groups, along with presence of closed but not locked doors
[10:43] FakeGod: Plus, you guys feature 2 rogues and a beguiler in your party, and are well specced for stealth
[10:44] Telephone Cat: Well, wedidsend Postie ahead...Spoiler: Claire please don't hurt meAs I move my vote

The more I think on this, the more prepared I am to bribe Firebringer to take Craft Wondrous Items. With 7 of us splitting wealth, I really do think we need this. Raia's scrolls already saved our lives last time, items aren't just a luxury.As I move my vote
