"In regards to merchantile - this the bugged skill! DO NOT GET MERCHANTILE. KEEP THIS SKILL LOW AS POSSIBLE. Sure you can buy stuff for less - but you`ll also get paid less! A suggestion is to change it to speechcraft. This will allow you to talk up some merchants disposition and then you`ll get better deals."

is it true??

yes, speecraft helps in making the disposition higher easily. and no, because the difference in prices that the merchant give is insignificant ( almost no change ).

I`m suprised so many people don`t know this! Yes it is true as far as I know. I have never actually tested it myself though - I just took their word for it. Maybe someone could do a little test for the rest of us? [img]tongue.gif[/img]

I've just tested it.

If the merchant disposition towards you is higher, you can buy things at a lower price and sell things at a lower price too.

It got the same bug as merchantile skill.
