what I have is that the accuracy of the guess is based on the players
level in the bargaining skill, plus twice their level in the skill(s)
that can be used to identify the item (so smithery for swords, bowyer
for bows, etc).

the actual line of code is

if (approximate) 
	    val = val +
(sint64)(val*(sin(tmp->count)/sqrt(lev_bargain+lev_identify*2+1.0)));

it therefore follows that the players who will get good estimates,
will be those who are good traders (high level bargaining) and/or
understand the market they are dealing in. (have the skills that are
relevant to the item in question).
