Too bad we aren't allowed non-core items.. the Pearl of Speech from Magic item Compendium 600gp would solve the problem. Still need the Headband. but alas non-core.
As for the magic item Gold piece vales.. the interpretation that the bonus skill point would only cost 150gp extra shouuld have been correct from what I've read in the SRD. http://www.d20srd.org/srd/magicItems/cre...ieceValues
Magic Item Gold Piece Values
Many factors must be considered when determining the price of new magic items. The easiest way to come up with a price is to match the new item to an item that is already priced that price as a guide. Otherwise, use the guidelines summarized on Table: Estimating Magic Item Gold Price Values.
Multiple Similar Abilities
For items with multiple similar abilities that don’t take up space on a character’s body use the following formula: Calculate the price of the single most costly ability, then add 75% of the value of the next most costly ability, plus one-half the value of any other abilities.
Multiple Different Abilities
Abilities such as an attack roll bonus or saving throw bonus and a spell-like function are not similar, and their values are simply added together to determine the cost. For items that do take up a space on a character’s body each additional power not only has no discount but instead has a 50% increase in price.
