It may be the lame way out, but actually the best single-room item selection in SOA by miles is at the Adventurer's Mart in Chapter 6. Risk = 0 (except 1 item). Reward = Whatever you can afford. With Bonus Merchants installed, you have Ribald, Ribald's special stock, Deirdre the bonus merchant, and the spell scroll lady in the top left. Multiple level 8 and 9 spell scrolls, Aeger's Hide, Bracers AC3 and AC4, Crossbow of Searing, Light Crossbow of Speed, Warblade, Helm of Glory, Staff of Rynn (the +4 weapon nearly anyone can use), Sling of Everard (the +5 weapon nearly anyone can use), Robe of Vecna, Vhalior's Helm, Mercykiller Ring, Dakkon's Zerth Blade, Girdle of Hill Giant Strength, Ring of Air, Ring of Regeneration (via Ribald pickpocket) and I'm sure I'm forgetting a bunch of useful items.

Other juicy areas that haven't been mentioned, though I think Astral Prison beats most of these:

- Bodhi's Gauntlet Level 1 (Bag of Holding, tons of magic ammo, Ring of Regeneration, Doomplate, and if you count the Dace section, Ring of Free Action, more magic ammo & spell scrolls, and fights aren't tough)
- Main Underdark Area (Dragon's Breath, good scrolls from vendors, pickpocketed stuff from the mage from the Imprisonment quest including Timestop scroll, ADHW scroll, and helm that casts Death, Bastard Sword +2 whose name escapes me from one of the prisoners in the gem)
- Ust Natha Market Vendors (Firetooth, Sentinel, Rod of Smiting, Staff of Earth, Potions of Magic Shielding, good scrolls)
- Trademeet Street Vendors (Dwarven Thrower, Blackblood, Tansheron's Bow... various indoor vendors would add more)
