Any way to lower prices, maybe by editing something in xedit? I'd like to sell things for what they cost, not 4 or 5 times the price... just sold a staff to a guard with a price tag of 2k for over 10 grand, and it was a 10% off deal... it's madness
I sat at my stall for 10 in game hours and nobody even came up to me. This sounded like an awesome idea, but if you don't get any customers, it's pointless and super boring.
what were you trying to sell? and where did you place your stall? did you set it to 10% off? that usually gets the costumers in. oh and place the thing in a high traffic area like Whiterun market area for best results and sell a variety of goods like cooked and uncooked foods, ingredients, pots, rolls of paper, baskets etc. not just legendary enchanted weapons and armor. and just FYI if you sell to anyone that has a favor quest you'll essentially do them a favor by selling to them and thus lose out on the reward/s you would of gotten if you did it normally.
Yeah, -10/10, too realistic! I work seasonally at craft shows irl and all the people cruising by with a just half a glance at our stuff hit WAY too close to home.
Sat in the middle of the market with some random food and cheap clothes... lots of foot traffic, close enough to chat at my character as they did drive-bys, not even a single browse from anyone.
has anyone here opened up two stalls run by a follower each? I am only able to open one stall at a time. please do share any workarounds if you can run more than one stall
Just FYI (if anyone even cares but) if you sell anything to someone that has a favor quest like Ysolda and her mammoths tusk or that Redguard dude with his family sword, you will lose access to these quests if you sell anything to them. you essentially did them a "Favor" by selling to them. so your out of one speechcraft level and one onehanded level. you'll lose access to that quest/job where you beat up that bard guy in the bannered mare for the vegetable seller chick. kinda lame that. :/
I feel like it needs reiterating that this isn't a mod for adventurers. It's for getting by in Skyrim without that. Try starting a new file (ideally with Skyrim Unbound, Realistic Room Rental, and survival mods) and roleplay as an honest business-person too weak to go adventuring. Make and sell potions from plants you find, use Glowing Ore Veins and smith things to sell, or even sneak around and steal common household items to sell. Works great too! I'm on day 9 of my current file and this mod is pivotal to affording an inn stay each night.
I agree with your point and did a playthrough like that : it was awesome!
For those who use mods that allow more than one follower, you can make use of two features that I simply love :
1 - You can create a second market stall with it's own inventory, sit, ask a follower to watch over it in your place then sit your character on another stall and they'll work just fine.
2 - You can leave a follower on a stall and forget him there, he will still sell your stuff from 8AM to 8PM, his time off he will adventure with you then abandon the player to tend to the store at the right time.
I definitely love this mod. For those who think it didn't work, this is how I did it and I'm making plenty of sales, and reached the cap reputation ,99.9%. So maybe y'all can try this:
1) Set your items at 10% off. You still make much more profit than selling them to merchants.
2) Put up items for as many category as possible: Weapon, any wearables, Potion, Alchemy ingredients, Food and drinks, others. I found that alchemy ingredients are the easiest to sell, followed by food and drinks, potion and weapon. They hardly buy any Armor though.
3) Be patient, at first it can be slow (I made around 5 sales on the first day from 12pm till 7pm at whiterun), things get easier when your reputation is up, and there's better chance of selling expensive items. At 90+ reputation, I get more than 30 successful sales per day from 10am to 7pm, mostly inexpensive items from 50-400gold. But it's my fresh game so I don't have many expensive stuff, I managed to sell one enchanted weapon for 1000+ gold hough!
However there's something I worried about though, as my customer would really own the items they purchased. This might cause the named NPC to have their inventory full of these items, and they'll stay throughout the save.
