Skeeve magic ring and dice (need to fight Ealdwig to death) [150+25gp]
Do note that there is no need for fighting between Skeeve and Ealdwig! The description said:

2 Pair of engraved bone dice (25 gp)
So, that means there are four fancy bone dice here! Skeeve suggests just splitting them so we each get a pair. Skeeve will just "buy" them like he said, give a pair to Ealdwig, and keep a pair for himself. Then they can play dice games against each other in some of their down times.
And again, I am pretty sure we can "trade in" the gloves for something else in Valpip's list if no one wants the gloves.
That leaves two main scenarios:
1) No one wants the gloves or any of Valpip's toys. That means (going by the glove value you stated) there is a total value of 407.4 (total coin+shinies) + 300 (value of magic gloves) = 707.4. Divide that out by three for the magic-less people and call it even.
2) Someone does want the gloves or one of Valpip's toys in return. Then that person gets a magic item, leaving just two left. So divide 407.4 by two and give it to the two magic-less people and call it even.
Whatever anyone wants out of the non-magic items is just included in their payout (if they didn't get a magic item) or they pay for it with their existing funds (if they did get a magic item). And don't forget Valpip's mini-magic store.
Skeeve doesn't need any of the cash, even if the ring is low-value, as Blornvid got the highest value item, and Skeeve will get to make use of it along the way. He's good.
