Scroll of Wealth

The Scroll of Wealth is a new item introduced in Diablo III that lets a player instantly sell items anywhere; even when not in town.

The goal of these scrolls, along with the new salvaging system, is to allow players to remain in the dungeons, engaged in combat all the time, rather than forcing regular trips back to town just to sell or salvage items.

Scroll Revealed

Jay Wilson revealed the Scroll of WEalth during an interview at Gamescom, 2010. His quote was short and to the point, and has not yet been elaborated upon.

"We’ve also added a Scroll of Wealth that allows you to sell items right on location."

Scroll Function

It's assumed that these scrolls work just like Identify Scrolls; right click to activate and then whatever you click on with the special pointer will be instantly sold, with the gold added to your character's account.

All items list the gold sale value as part of the hover display in Diablo III, so you know what you're going to get before you use this feature.

It's not known if each scroll will let you sell multiple items, or if you'll need a huge stack of them when you set out.

Unknown Issues

How much will Scrolls of Wealth cost? How readily accessible will they be? It's assumed that they will be sold by the Mystic, or perhaps the Jeweler. They were not seen in the Blacksmith's items for sale, when his interface was profiled in August, 2010.

A buyback menu is part of the basic NPC interface in Diablo III, but it's not known if this is integrated into the Scroll of Wealth. Perhaps retrieving an accidentally-sold item would require a trip to town?
