I have been looking for something htat probably doesnt exist. See I am havinig a bit of a hard time putting the right prices on my weapons (I deleted all the pre existing ones and started fresh) Well i cant quiet put prices to go with attack power and such. Is there such a thing as a converter to do this? Like I put in something like if the attack power is lets say 55 and it gives me that the price for this object should be like 2000 or something like that.

You have to experiment. We don't know how much gold enemies drop, how regularly you find them in chests, etc., which are all factors to consider when making prices. Just try a bunch of values and see which one fits the best.
 
Kevin James's idea is pretty good.  Though if it consumes too much time, I suggest you compile a program (such as in C++) to do spit out the price if you input the weapon's attack.
 
I machine can't beat yourself. This is not an MMORPG with 50 weapons that are the same and enemies who all drop the same thing (with no chests of w/e). Play your game, look at the amount of gold you have and price weapons accordingly.

All good ideas I just didnt know if there was something out there or not. I guess I wont be putting prices in untill I have all towns set up and the game almost finished then go in and put them in according to where the items are found and how much gold I should have by then
