Hermilio Posted January 5, 2014 Share Posted January 5, 2014 Ever tried to sell an item on a merchant's shop? Or try to buy a potion, that goes for fifty septims on default but is charged for 120? Or a sword, which prices 200, but goes to astronomical 600? Well, That is annoying. Maybe not for you skyrim veterans who only live from what you find on dungeons and never buy anything from shops, and then go after mods that increases prices, for now you have too much money to spare. Well, I go for a city-dependant playthrough. I come into the city with items, and expect to buy items that I need (potions, scrolls, ammo, new gear). That, while I still turn a profit. Now, I can't buy a damned elven blade even after selling the gems and jewelry I scavenged from the ruins. And this sucks. I look for a mod, or for a modder who can make merchants sell for lower and buy for higher. Make the game more rewarding, but also lower the prices of all kinds of items to reduce that inflation. Is that gold, after all? Because it looks like a massive gold coin can't buy a single pint of ale. In any case, it should go for 10g maximum, like the two previous titles of Elder Scrolls. So please. If there was a modder to at least make merchants sell for 125% and buy for 75% at level 40-50, it would be really, really great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
faffman Posted January 5, 2014 Share Posted January 5, 2014 I can somewhat relate to this, but I would like to call myself one of those veterans you mentioned, and this issue is only an issue early game. When you aren't many levels high, you usually don't have much coin, but go dungeon-delving a few times, and you are starting to be set. Even if you want to buy stuff rather than find it, sell the s#*! you find in dungeons, and you will find yourself affording a few pieces from Adrianne. You still probably can't buy everything you want, but that's how it should be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have multiple playthroughs on high levels that have experienced this. But I still find that, even at 100 speech, selling for 50% and buying for 150% is freaking ridiculous.
