Fed up with Creeper and Mudcrab ?

If you gat fed up with the endless trading with either Creeper or Mudcrab to allow you to sell expensive stuff, here is a partial alternative.
This relies on you not bothering to buff up your own enchant skills. Once you have about 150k and want one of those expensive constant effect enchantments, see an enchanter that will barter as well as enchant, like the one upstairs in the Balmora mages guild.
Pay for the enchantment, then KEEPING THE DIALOGUE BOX OPEN, sell something expensive, like Bittercup (100,000) to get back a large chunk of what you have just paid out. Once you fully close the dialogue box, the money you paid out disappears from the enchanter's inventory, but if you don't close it you can sell pricey stuff, and recoup much of your money in just one transaction.
You don't get full face value for your sales like you can with Creeper/Mudcrab, but by this time in the game when you are splattering Daedric Lords and Golden Saints and looting them, you can get as much money from their weapons/armour as you need.
I know this has been touched on before, but I thought it wouldn't hurt to spell it out.
ps. I have found out since, after some experimenting, that for reasons I do not understand the above process sometimes works, and sometimes it doesn't. Therefore be sure to save the game before doing this, and if it doesn't work, reload and re-try.
