  • this has been patched. it only increases their gold by 500 now. the "master trader" perk (100 speech) increases their gold by an additional 1,000 gold. I have found that being a member of the thieves guild (and completing 5 "... jobs" quests from delvin and vex) is much more beneficial than any perk in the speech tree. the Guildmaster hood provides 20% better prices, and with all 4 city influence quests completed EVERY fence has 4,000 gold, plus around 1,000 for the 4 merchants in the flagon.

  • @JackBlack5150 that's 5 "... jobs" quests in each of the major cities (cities with stables). after turning in your 5th from a particular city, Delvin will tell you to go see a certain person in that city. Markarth: Endon. Solitude: Erikur. Whiterun: Olfrid Battle-Born. Windhelm: Torsten Cruel-Sea.

    Each of these 4 "City Influence" quests increases the Fence's barter gold (all 4=4,000) and a merchant moves in to the Ragged Flaggon.

  • I just buy something expensive and sell it back, but this is better.

  • I married that trader dude's sister. Then she cheated on me and wouldn't cook me anymore food. The last time I saw her, her body was floating down the river outside of Whiterun.

  • this didnt work for me they only went up by 500

  • en mi canal hay un video para acelerarlo

  • steel arrow in the sign?

  • or do the restoration glitch and sell something that cost a trillion gold and increase your speech skill

  • how long does it take to have affect?

  • i have a question. does this work with the khajiit merchants?

  • Yes this is one of the exceptions. I tried war maidens and they didn't go up. Only five hundred. This one does ten thousand.

  • That is the only trader that gets that boost, I think it

    s because he is in the first town you can actually use, And no one thinks about him... A week, Months or couple months later when they actually get 70 speech. So it's not ALL merchants, It's just that one guy.

  • whats the max amount of stores can you invest in

  • its good for me because i glitched up my armor and now i have like 7 daedric armors alone

  • if i invest they only get 500 gold more

  • Jggihgcvghgfigyhvkbiv

  • Has anyone checked if you can invest in the khajit trader in dawnstar? Cause if this works it would mean that you can loot the dawnstar chest for 10'000 gold!

  • Nevermind what I wrote before. Whiterun didn't work - but the riverwood trader now has 10000 coin!

  • I have level 100 speech and i invested in the guy in whiterun. He only has 1000+ coin. Bot 10,000. What's wrong with my game?

  • Does this work on the thieves guild trader tonilia? good chance i spelled her name wrong, anyway i want to sell expensive stolen items.

  • I have the investor perk but the option doesn't apear!

  • its best to invest in the opposite sex, cause in order to get investor u need to buy the skill which gives u 10% better prices on opposite sex so in his case instead of 2056 without wearing the necklace, he would have gotten about 2261 on the opposite sex without the necklace and with the necklace around 2600. thumbs up so people can see.

  • I watch most of your vudeos u helpe a lot

  • i dont have the option

  • @omgtheykildkenny same here

  • @omgtheykildkenny u need 3 skill points and lvl 70 speech, get ur speech to 70 and take ur skill points and buy the left path of the speech tree to get to investor and purchase that skill. to get ur speech to 100 check out "skyrim speech guide" videos

  • @omgtheykildkenny Maybe you dont have unlocked investing skill?

  • Give 500 to your man at the skyforge then do the chest glitch and u get more than 10000 gold coins

  • ^-^ "Because I'm cheep."

  • my deadric is 182 armor :D i fell happy lol

  • Beautiful game, Skyrim. Dark Messiah is what Skyim lacked in action though. Tube this:

    Dark Messiah Single Player Trailer

  • I'm tired of skyrim... BUT I CAN'T WAIT FOR THE FUCKING DLC!!!!!!

  • never should have come here!

  • yeah only 500 increased

  • the ability to invest with someone is bugged. I've found that the first person you invest in (someone inside a building) allows you to invest in him more than once. But, the game will only count it as one investment, although it keeps taking your money. he'll keep the cash he got from the investing, but after that's depleted, he'll return to the +500g that the game counts. so this is a pretty pointless bug. It's just money shifting over to one person til you can sell stuff to get it back.

  • If you invest at the sky forge in Whiterun you can take ALL of the money from the chest under Whiterun!!! Instant money!!!

  • In skyrim the perk tree of speech (I talk about skills merchant, allure, barter) are total bullshit. I got 50k on lvl 40~45 and money is not that important, the 'only' problem is that u loose very important perks on speech when u dont need it.

    But u'll get a lot of money (more than 200k I think) if u go by this way on lv 50...talkin about a warrior guy.

  • @camiilarocchi im level 39 nord, with 220,000 gold. about 10,000 carry stuff / 450 and i rode from whiterun to markarth on shadowmere just to invest, and it's glitched!!! (my house is in markarth too and my wife is there now from breezehome in whiterun)

  • lol where's the golden claw?

  • subscribed! :D

  • doesnt work for me hes money just go up a little up can some one help me

  • @MrKoolAidHD doesn't work for me either, the stock only inxrease with 500 g, Plz help

  • @MrKoolAidHD me as well

  • You should do a video on how to get that amulet that would be awesome and help a lot.

  • yo zapp you need to put a talent on it fool

  • I have a 100 Speech but i can do to investor ! how come ? can you help me ?

  • @Zapp0star same happened to me but after 1 day (in real life) it lets me do it to only a few people

  • @Zapp0star you need to get the perks before it

  • Thanks buddy. Very helpful

  • if im 100 in all skills no hack how do i get that perk

  • @dovahdovahkiin4289 If you are 100 in all skills you woulf have 81 perks, you will need to use 4 to get that one on your speech ability

  • Get the enchanting ability "Banish" And just get a shitload of petty, lesser and common soul gems. Make a hole lot of iron daggers, go to an arcane enchanter and enchant the iron daggers with banish, pull it up to maximum use, and there u go, u level up blacksmithing and enchanting and u get an iron dagger u can sell for up to 800 coins. Thumbs up so he can see and maybe make an tutorial for it ;)

  • @ThaImpatientGuy i just sold like 20 daggers after i read this xD

    im making more though

  • @ThaImpatientGuy how do you suggest to get the banish effect

  • @ThaImpatientGuy im more surprised that you wouldnt figure that out

  • @ThaImpatientGuy or do the smart way use the OHGMA INFINIUM glitch

  • Yeah. Totally thought it meant 500 more. But it's ten + grand, AND their stock increases/expanded.

    Damn thoughtful of you to make this video. Course, this is why I love TES. The GAME has lore to discover.

    /thump up

  • So u say u want to invest then u just wait and their gold goes up? I dont get it..

  • It's different with every merchant

  • /watch?v=7xjnWJG7K50&feature=c­hannel_video_title

    1 Ninja and 2 Bandits

  • I can not select the Investor perk. :(

  • i did this and before the merchant had 2000 gold now he has 3000 i dont know what i did wrong

  • are alvor and the riverwood trader important in guild or deadra quests?

  • soo i wanna sell this to him... because it looks like shit. hahahhahaha the way you said that had me rolling

  • i wanna sell this to him cuz it...looks like shit!

  • when i was like somewhere around lvl 30 or so a dragon came and the blacksmith guy wanted to fight him but his ass got lit up it sucked to because he was my favorite blacksmith also sad cause his wife and daughter would always talk about him but its all good i have a house in solitude thats 28000 gold total and the blacksmith there is tight with me

  • So I made an investment with the whiterun blacksmiths. Same gold. Riverwood guy, same gold.

    Bullshit broken skill.

  • Awesome tip! Thanks for shharing this, Muzzle. :-)

  • Does anyone know how much the khajiit trader outside Dawnstar goes up too? And nice vid, cheers :)

  • The true fastest way is cheating but still u go to black briar meadery with at least 25 speech and jus keep persuading him 100 speech in about 30 mins

  • i invest 2 merchant but they got same coin (750). nothing happens. and i can't sell my items to lucan valerius. is that why because i married with camille valerius?

  • It's Over 9000!!!

  • i used to make took in the knee joke but then i took arrow in the knee

  • i accidentaly killed a chicken in riverwood and then three guys (including Alvor) ran after me forever and tried to kill me... i had to kill them

  • only my merchants get around 2000 gold insted ok 10000?

  • lol dude u didnt even have to pay the 500 gold for this.. if u know how to get ur houses free by putting ur gold in a cupboard same concept with this just go behind the guy and say u want to invest and as soon as you say yes back out of it turn around and quickly put all ur money in the cabinet then wait til hes done talking and get ur money back and wala LIKE SO EVERY ONE CAN SEE!

  • this only works with riverwood merchant...

  • I got 100speach but it won't let me buy the perk why is that

  • @TheGammycammy u need to level ur character up to unlock another perk that will let u choose that perk under ur speech

  • @TheGammycammy You have to buy the line of perks leading to that specific one, so it'll cost like 4-5 perk unlocks to get it.

  • I don't get why Bethisda made it so that merchents gold goes down anyway it never did in Oblivion its stupid

  • @normthedoorman I suggest you play oblivion again. It certainly did. In fact, in Skyrim the gold replenishes within approximately three days--sometimes 24 hours. In Oblivion, the shopkeepers would take longer to replenish gold.

  • @normthedoorman Its more realistic then each merchant having an infinite amount of gold. This is what they do for fallout and it got a much better reception than what they been doing for Elder Scrolls so they changed it for Skyrim.

  • super effective tip brah ;D anyone who got xbox shud add mee MadMonkey93D im great with tips in Skyrim and Oblivion (used to always play Oblivion but not alot anymore) in Oblivion i know a way to get thousands of gold peices in less than 5 mins...gotta figure one out fer Skyrim still but lyke i said add me if u want sum tipss!!! :D

  • this really helped me, thanks :D

  • I know I gave him it and nothing happned

  • Thank you very much

  • his gold just went up 500 for me

  • @kingkill305 that happened for me to then i waited 48 hours and it went up to 11k gold

  • @kingkill305 Make sure you invest in their business several times. Invest 500 gold, his gold increases 500 permanently. Invest 10'000 gold, his gold will increase by 10'000 permanently.

  • Your telling me. i had 50 of both dragon bones AND scales

    

  • @delunatic4 weight: 1250 + other stuff?

  • Alvor died in my game

  • Thats funny I just investid in him and wanted to know what it did and found this

  • Why won't the gold on my game go up to 10,000? I did everything correctly and paid my 500 gold. Anyone else had this problem?

  • @NickyDinger i have :/

  • @NickyDinger I paid my wife Camilla the 500 but she only went to 1000. I haven't tried any other shops yet, I'll try and see what happens.

  • I was expecting they possibly got better stock, more expensive stuff.

  • Alvor and Sigrid ( Alvors wife) were both killed by a dragon in my game. I took the keys to there house and I made it my own lol. Their daughter stops by their house sometimes throughout the day lol

  • @fortnerjable Haha i hated that when it happened to me :P

  • straight from the wiki:

    Note: Some of the merchants may "forget" that you invested in their shop and lose the option for having extra buying gold. This may be a bug in the game. However, the glitch may also cause the trader in Riverwood to have an excessive amount of gold with which to purchase goods.

  • @247HIPHOPEFUL also, check out Snoopy0's videos to boost your speech. There's one of them that can teach you to make your crafting ability %1,000,000,000 more effective. And when you craft a potion or armor with that kind of bonus and sell it (regardless of whether or not the vendor can actually pay for it), your speech goes WAY up.

    My speech and alchemy level went up to 100 in 20 minutes flat. no joke.

  • how come i invested in the general goods store in whiterun and he started with 750 and now only has 1250?

    

  • Ty

  • 70 Speech is resonable if you think about it. most of the shop owners in skyrim are either broke as heck of don't have enough money to afford what you have. The invester perk gives them about 10k more money so they can afford most of it.

  • I don't get why you have to be 70 speech for this. It's like if your not a smooth talker they'll turn down an offer of 500 pounds and permanently increased money!

  • you need 70 speech for this wtf..

  • subbed:)

  • to bad on my game I killed all the shopkeepers in riverwood and in whiterun.

  • I just don't want to waste skill points on Speech

  • hmmmz I think this is bugged. After I saw this I went to this merchant. Invested in it and he had 11k. Then I sold some stuff while I thought i was buying it. So I loaded. I had to do it again. Invested again and now he only has 1100. The amount he should have. All other merchants only do get +500. Not +10k. If you haven't been to a certain merchant for a long time his money seems to increase. But only for one time it seems, and if you load it's gone. Seems very bugged to me.

  • @kercmerk it's legit except for illusion 85-100 and alliteration 63-100 I used the ogmha infinium

  • I'm level 81 and a half I have 872k gold ATM 235 hours game play and all quest complete I think... But that trader has 11750 on mine and he's the best I found so far. :D

  • @deathlord352 Just curious, did you get 100 in all your skills LEGIT, or did you exploit them to shit?

  • @deathlord352 ur cool bro

  • if you go talk to the merchant at the black briar meadery in riften and ask him "what is it like working for maven black briar" and then click persuade it will level your speech this process can be repeated and will level your speech every other time (your speech must be over 25 for this to work)

  • I used to play other games, but then i took an arrow to the knee

  • If you wanna boost your speech go to Black-Brair Meadry in Riften and talk with the guy behind the counter and just keep persauding him over and over again.

  • @312spartan He's already got this tutorial upXD

  • @312spartan omg thats so frickin awesome thanks

  • @312spartan Yes but they will patch this glitch at the end of the month:(

  • I killed every one in river wood when will they come back I'm on ps3

  • @ori033 never

  • @ori033 NPC's won't respawn unless they're "essential" in which you can't kill them anyways. Sooo you'll have to reload a save from before you killed everyone. Sucks bro.

  • i don't get it. everyone says there comes dragons to riverwood all the time, they never show up when I go there. ...?

  • @cuzgandalfgothigh99 they really just come to whichever town you frequent the most. I go to morthal and the college of winterhold a lot, which is why there are about seven dragon carcasses in each of those locations. this guy probably goes to riverwood a lot

  • @benzinator11 that might explain their retardedly huge amount of attacks on whiterun in my game.. but they haven't been showing up anywhere special nowadays, mostly because the PS3 version is just getting worse. :(

  • sometimes the gold dont go up for me -_- the only guy it went up for was the riverwood trader

  • @DoubleTapSlap I KILLED A CHICKEN TOO! damn chickens

  • So basically i have 116 000 gold, haven't invested a single perk into speech yet, as i am trying to invest into what i miss the most.

    My question is, do i even need tons of gold? I mean for training? I can pickpocket the money back. Buying a house? I got way more than i really need. Anything important that makes it worth putting perks into speech to invest?

  • @k4l4suPP better talking to people like on hard speech quests it helps :P

  • @ItalianFlyGuy That's good, but i buy arrows and stuff that will give the merchant enough money. So i win by buying and i win by selling :P. Besides, with the boosts of a couple of artifacts, my speech is 98 at the moment and rising :P. So i am still asking, what there is to do with the money ;-).

  • @k4l4suPP if you have 116,000 gold, and you don't have two houses and a wife by now, yes! use your gold, invest. i am level 39 200,000 gold, a whife and to houses. tons of stuff i need to get rid off and just got this perk but didn't work for me.

  • @lilplayboy98 Well, level 81 with 400k + legit gold by now. I'd much rather just leave the items be, as i got my speech to 100 as well. Yet, i consider the perk useless, as i found out that the fences can have up to 4000 gold without any speech perks.

    I know that this may prove useful to some people, but not to me.

  • Comment removed

  • Awesome! This has been driving me crazy! Thanks for the post!

  • ...So i wanna sell this to him,because it's look like shit..

    xD

  • awesome advise, about the only direct tips I could find, every other site only hints at how to do this. Thank you

  • how long does it take after investing in a business to make the trader's money go up to 10k?

  • @xDragzGOML Actually, I think that specific vendor is the only one who gets a five digit gold amount. Anyway, I have lots of speech skills trained, including the last one which gives every merchant 1000 extra gold. Next character I start won't do that, because it's a waste if you plan to take your time with a character. So many ways of getting gold, and so little to spend it on...

  • Куль бронь!

  • ok this isnt working for me, they still have like 1000 gold.... yes im lvl 100... yes i have unlocked the perk!!

  • If you type Skyrim on youtube, this video will be the first OMG

  • arrrrgggghg this is really annoying, i had 12,000 gold on Lucan in riverwood, i accidently killed him so i went to alvor and i found him dead on the floor because he had been killed by a dragon!

  • @MrMikeyXtreme console, click on him, type "resurrect" press enter. mistakes happen, bring him back to life.

  • i took an arow in the knee then i took an arow in the knee

  • I go in to the riverwood trader and i cant invest.why not?

  • @TEENSURVIVAL101 Do you have level 70 speech, and the perk that lets you invest in businesses unlocked?

  • @COLBYisReconPizza i have 100 speech and how do i get the perk?

  • @TEENSURVIVAL101 Go into your skills, go to Speech, and spend a "perk point" (obtained by leveling up) on the thing that lets you invest in shops.

  • @TEENSURVIVAL101 You have 100 Speech but you don't know how to unlock perks? Nice way to exploit your way to 100 Speech.

  • @TEENSURVIVAL101 also make sure u have 500 gold on u or the option doesnt appear

  • The khahitt (idk how to spell) out side the city with like horns (the westernmost city) has like 2000 or so..... without investment

  • 1 guy is gay

  • for some reason this doesnt work for me. dont know why ive tried everything

  • @sonico30 mine took an arrow to the knee....

  • I don't think this is a glitch. It only works at the riverwood trader.

  • holy shit thank you so much for htis omg lololl

  • Apparently river wood is the only place a merchant can do 10,000 gold or more once you invest and is not a glitch because there are items in game that are worth over 10,000 septims.

  • i did this just now, then went outside the store and waited 24 hours. went back in and the store had a little over 11000. all you have to do is wait once you invest
