One thing I find a bit annoying about the game is that it is impossible to sell very valuable items.... Just found a staff worth 210 000 drakes....but the richest trader I've ever met has about 4000 only....sad :)

Does anybody know about a loaded trader?

PS. When I started playing, I accidently met a mighty warrior somewhere in th regions of mount Kand, who wanted me to grant hím death... 'cause there where nothing in the entire world that was able to kill him. I think he struck me down with one single strike at that point. :) I'd like to try him out now....but I don't remember where to find him....

That warrior is in the Suran area if i'm not mistaken.

Do you have the PC version ? If so, i suggest you download a plugin that brings richer traders into the game. There's plenty of em. ;)

His name is umbra, after the umbra sword. it is worth 110,000 drakes and it soultraps for 120 secs (good for soul trapping vivec with azuras star) He has orisch armor and you travel over the mountains next to suran in an opening.

Rich Crab

There is a Drunken mud crab that will by armor weapons and some other things from u. He is located on a small island off of the dwarven ruins of Mzahnch, Mzahnch is south of suran. The crab has like 10 grand, not much but he helps me. I think the small island is just southeast of Mzahnch.

have fun finding him and make sure u dont accidently kill him

Although Mud Crab has more money than Creeper, he's so far out in the boonies as to make seeing him a pain in the butt. Creeper has 5k and will buy anything enchanted, all weapons and armour, all potions, all plates and utensils, etc. He won't buy clothing and potion-making materials.

While 5k isn't great, he does buy at full value if the item is in prime condition. There are many mods that will add rich traders to the game and some mods that will give Creeper scads of money. I chose 'creepermoremoney' to give him 50k. I felt that more would unbalance the game too much.

Goto the Mud Crab

The best way to gain $$ in the game without using any downloads is the visit the mud crab. The first time is the hardest, but do like they tell you above. Then when you have fouond him, Mark the spot and use Recall to get back to him.
Here's how it works. Start by selling stuff that is less than $10K. Get as much money as you can from the crab. When you have depleted his money, rest for 24 hours. This regenerates his money and you do it all over again. Take note what time it is when you rest, sometimes you get interrupted and will have to rest for additional hours to make up the full 24 hours. Once you have done this a few times, the crab has enough items so that you can trade larger items for many smaller items minus the $10K you get from him. Selling large ticket items will take you a few days doing it this way but it gets you all the money you will ever need to buy all the training you'll want. I've got all my attributes maxxed out with $1.5 mill on me doing it this way
Go for the glass weapons. They are the best bang for your buck. Most Golden Saints carry them. Also the Daedric Lords have big ticket weapons but are very heavy.
Any other ?'s just email me. I've mostly done everything.
