Moving to the Tavern forum.
Due to the very unique items (mainly the spell scrolls he has that can be found no where else), the fact that masters don't care a whit for their apprentices, and that they were hearing Apprentices have been consorting with others to give spells from their spellbooks - or scrolls and components purchased directy from the Red Wizard master, most Red Wizard masters just raised their base prices.
And just to make sure everyone knows - but Red Wizards are *very* protective of their magic at this point in Thay's timeline. They hoard it and guard it carefully, even from each other at times.
