It also is now pretty crappy. I'm not sure if that's because they changed the formula for the bonus, or if it's because the value of the items has been decreased.
I used it on a robe worth 203 gold. That upped the value to a whopping 208 gold. That's before the -6000000000% markdown that merchants are willing to pay, so that's maybe an extra 1 gold in your pocket.
That doesn't seem very useful. Maybe I'll try it again at level 20 when I have things worth 1000+ gold and see if that makes a difference.
