Working as a taxi like it's my job is NOT fun, so the port has to be worth my while - I have no plans to go zone-to-zone advertising teleports.

Mana regen is impossible to come by right now, but that's just one factor at play. The request for a teleport is basically saying "sacrifice some of your (the druid/wizard) time to save me a lot of my time". If saving you that time isn't worth double-digit platinum at the very least, then I don't think you need a port.
The funniest thing when you do ports for a fixed or minimum price is the number of people who claim they "would have paid way more", guess what, I've ported you before and know you don't.
