The creeper thing seems to be the fairest, that is within the game's design, although it seems a lot like standing in one place and jumping for 10 hours just to raise athletics skill, when I could just modify the stat to save me time, or get the Creeper mod to save time as well.

I don't like to mod games in general, but in this case, i think not having an NPC with enough cash to buy truly valuable things is a little unrealistic. I wouldn't even mind travelling to some oddball remote location just to sell exotic stuff if I would get paid good prices for it, which is what they should have done. I think there are some mods with these types of NPCs in them too.

Ah, well, I'll try the trader thing just to follow the rules for now. I just wondered what people did with things that were valuable like this. It seems like a cheap way to make a lot of cash, BUT the guy I killed for this wasn't a cakewalk either and he took me a number of tries.

Thanks for the tips..
