Don't rare things cost MORE, not LESS?
in business / real life in general yes 
but in gametechnics if you wouldn't get them cheaper than your nationalmages then they were rarely worth the build . they need to be cheaper to be a reward when you really rarely find them.
on the other hand that is quite unfair . another such example is finding early a site with 40% blood or conjuration or forging bonus .
Rarity only costs more (in theory) in a common market with a fixed demand and a limited supply. That's not the situation here at all.
Boron, it's not unfair if someone finds a site with unique abilities, if they had to do something that involved choices to get the site. For example, if they invested in magic paths and invested the time and possibly resources to search for the site. It's a prospective investment that paid off well.
