Stone Summit Badges are currently about 400g-800g each, depending upon your level of patience/luck.

HUGE THANK YOU to dagrdagaz and Snograt
for pointing out, back on May 16 when Nick was
collecting Icy Lodestones, that these badges would
drop while farming Traveler's Vale and should be kept.
I had 14 left over from then, so just went out into
Tasca's today and got a couple more on the way to Nick.
Good tip, much appreciated.

how often does Nicholas the Traveller recycle what he's looking for?
For example, after this week is over, when's the next time we think this guy will be collecting badges? Does what he's collecting seem to be correlated with where he is (in which case, GW2 will probably be out before he's looking for these badges again).

Or are those the same thing (ie, Arenanet has a list of place/collection item pairings that they cycle through)
aspi
And will he ever want the expensive ones. He allready asked for amber I think, will he want ectos and/or obby shards for instance. I doubt it.

yes I know this, but it was an FYI for those who were wondering which is why I put in 'point'. (and then showed my example of which quest would cause him to NOT spawn).

Kanda has done an excellent job of recording where Nick has been and what he has collected. There is a list of remaining collectible items and probabilities on this page:
http://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/User:Kanda/Nicholas
I visit there to find out what to plan for and to accumulate items from the remaining areas. I have an idea that Spearhead Peak will come up soon and I'm saving up all of my Frigid Hearts!

Which (if my calculations are correct) will be during the wintersday holiday festival. How can we ask Arenanet that the item he asks for are winterdays gifts? I would like to show my appreciation for all the fun he created for the last 2.6 years by giving him a gift myself!

hats off to kanda...that is pretty impressive (or very anal--hard to say which), but glad they kept all the research and put it in one place /round of applause....
will take a look at what is left (not really worried since I keep just about everything nic has wanted so far----)

well ran around and he does NOT appear to be in "Bjora Marches"!
So can others review other potential locations and update here if not there that way people don't waste time on those. Thanks!
p.s.
I really like Kanda's predictions!!!

Spent half an hour trying to get an essence drop in Adashim, this is painful like pulling teeth (much like Pillaged Goods week).

I did it with a SoS ritu in The Hidden City. Half an hour (one an' a half run) and i got the 5 essence. It's not a big deal 
Raven Wing
I guess it depends on your luck. So far 3 runs in city with SoS and I got 4. (but also a ruby from jeweled daggers)

Not a terrible farm, but not one I wanted to farm 30 or so for. Got a green out of it atleast.
