HELLo!

In the interest of having one of my characters create a new magical item that fit her perfectly, I've come up with no less than 4 similarily themed rings. I'm unsure about how well I've balanced them, especially when it comes to the cost. So I hope some of you would be kind enough as to give me some feedback on them.

Eolanna's Inconspicous Ring
Requirements: Forge ring, Nystul's Magic Aura, CL 9.
Description:Wearing this ring hides the aura of any spellcasters from detect magic, and other detect spells, making the character appear like a non-spellcaster. (See "Nystul's Magic Aura" for details.)
Creation cost: 28.000 GP, 1.120 XP
Market price: 56.000 GP

Eolanna's Hidden Ring
Requirements: Forge ring, Nystul's Magic Aura, CL 8.
Description: Hides the aura og any magic items the character wears, not including its own aura. (See "Nystul's Magic Aura" for details.)
Creation cost:: 24.000 GP, 960 XP
Market price: 48.000 GP

Eolanna's Secret Ring
Requirements: Forge ring, Nystul's Magic Aura, CL 15.
Description: Hides both the spellcaster aura and the aura of other magic items. (See above and "Nystul's Magic Aura" for details.)
Creation cost: 96.000 GP, 3.840 XP
Market price: 192.000 GP

Eolanna's Conspicous Ring
Requirements: Forge ring, Nystul's Magic Aura, CL = Target level +6.
Description: Gives the wearer a fake magic aura of a spellcaster of the intended level, the aura is of the same type (arcane/divine) as the item's creator. (See table below, and "Nystul's Magic Aura" for details.)
Creation cost: Target levelē x 1.000 GP + 3.000 GP, GP/25 XP.

Cost and level table for "Eolanna's Conspicuous Ring":
Target  Base price     XP       CL
 1        4.000 gp     160 xp    7
 2        7.000 gp     280 xp    8
 3       12.000 gp     480 xp    9
 4       19.000 gp     760 xp   10
 5       28.000 gp   1.120 xp   11
 6       39.000 gp   1.560 xp   12
 7       52.000 gp   2.080 xp   13
 8       67.000 gp   2.680 xp   14
 9       84.000 gp   3.360 xp   15
10      103.000 gp   4.120 xp   16
11      124.000 gp   4.960 xp   17
12      147.000 gp   5.880 xp   18
13      172.000 gp   6.880 xp   19
14      199.000 gp   7.960 xp   20

What I'm especially conserned about, it the last ring and the formula I've used to calculate it's price; Even though it seems quite balanced at the higher levels, it seems to be very cheap for a low-level target ring. Anyone that has any ideas about this, seeing as the formula must be quite short and simple.

Edit: Updated costs.

Happy playin'!

HELLo!

Just talked with my friend and DM, and he suggested these prices instead:
quote:
EIR: 6.000 GP, 240 GP, CL 3
EHR: 28.000 GP, 1.120 XP, CL 7
ESR: 48.000 GP, 1.920 XP, CL 11
ECR: Looks good, I think...

After discussing this with him, I'm partial to agreeing with him. Though, I'm still very uncertain, so any other comments would be much appreciated.

Happy playin'!

Updated the prices in the first post, after discussing it with another friend/DM of mine.
