Be cautious with extra glyphs as a wizard; you actually end up with less CP overall unless you're converting very few items.
Normally there are five glyphs on the floor, plus one in his inventory to begin with for a total of six. 6 glyphs * 100 CP / glyph = 600 CP total
With extra glyphs, you're up to seven glyphs but only 80 CP each. 7 glyphs * 80 CP/glyph = 560 CP
So you actually do end up paying for extra glyphs by giving up 40 CP. Still a decent deal if you actually use those extra glyphs, but in most circumstances you won't end up ahead CP-wise.
Note that with fewer glyphs you'll have a total of five at 150 CP each. That's 5 glyphs * 150 CP /glyph = 750 CP
This is the way to go if you want to maximize your CP, although most of the time you're much better off choosing an "extra booster" prep to complement your conversion bonus rather than just adding to it. Non-elf wizards will virtually always prefer the extra mana boosters, for instance.
