Bandit Scalps

After finnishing off the cloakwood mines officer Vae left for Baldurs Gate.
She used to purchase bandit scalps for a substantial sum of gold... I have recently been jumped between zones by bandits and I am left with a large quantity of bandit scalps... I am wondering if any other person would purchase them.

There are other mechants (can't remember wich - but I would suspect the mage at the High Hegde) that purchases scalps too, but not for the same price, IIRC only for 25 gold.
So just hang on to them and sell them when you find one willing to buy.

if you wanna make some REAL money
take winter wolf pelts and sell them to the shopkeeper at nashkel
500 a piece i usually come back from that area south of nashkel w/2 or 3 of them

And if you wanna make some REAL REAL REAL money, hunt some Wyverns (move between the Cloakwoord area's and they will ambush you soon enough) and sell their heads to Officer Vai for 1000 a piece. When you sell them, sell at least one bandit scalp at the same time or Officer Vai will leave.

Yeah... I returned from Shandalar's (name sp?) Island with loads of Winter Wolf Pelts.
(Its the quest you get at Ulgoths beard to retrieve the mages cloak).
I am in Durlags Tower now and I'm wondering if its possible to complete it with three lvl 6 chars three lvl 5 chars.
I have been having some problems with Doom guards so I don't know
what will happen throughout the rest of the dungeon.
Don't give anyting away
. Just give me a hint on wheather or not its possible
.

Of course it's possible. May take longer (depending on your party makeup and experience with the game), but it's certainly possible.

If you have finished Cloakwood, you can go to Baldur's Gate. Go north, young man.

Or you could go and get some experiance...
At that point I found my self able to manage Shandalar's Island (A quest given to your by a mage in Ulgoths beard to retrieve a cloak).
Done that? then if your crazy (like me
) go and trample though Durlag's Tower.
Some
nice surprises in that one

Yes, the High Hedge guy will buy the scalps. Interestingly, the Sorcerous Sundries guy seem willing to buy practically anything.

LOL! But YOU were breaking into HIS home, of course.
Officer Vai should be in Beregost, in the Jovial Juggler Inn (the one at the bottom right corner of the map). She's not there until you've cleaned out the Nashkell Mines.

No, the door was open, and I walked nice and slowly in, but then he was big-mouthning me, and I started to dislike him!

I can't find Officer Vai. I cleaned out the mine, killed Mulahey, got the reward from the mayor, talked to Tranzig and now I am about to go to Cloakwood forest, but I can't find Officer Vai in Jovial Juggler Inn...

IIRC she did that to me once, too... No big deal, though. She doesn't give quests, right? Only money, of which you'll have more than you'll need anyway.

If you talked to Officer Vai at any point without any bandit scalps in your inventory, she left for good.
No biggie, you can sell scalps at Feldposts in Beregost and at Sorcerous Sundries in Baldurs Gate.
