📋 About This Mod
Are you fed up selling Dark Brotherhood armor to Meldor only to have the annoying little guy immediately put it on? I don't know about you, but male Bosmer with squeaky voices in tight-fitting black don't really do it for me. In fact, any time you sell a full helm to an NPC and they whack it over their head, some atmosphere is definitely lost. Realism is also an issue - would any average person really just strap on a Daedric cuirass? Even worse, anything a merchant decides to keep for themselves won't be available for sale at a later date. This mod aims to address that, ensuring that vendors will place your stuff where it belongs, in the barter menu ready to sell on.
Fashionable Merchants is a small Oblivion mod that stops merchants from equipping the armor you sell them, preventing immersion-breaking outfits like Meldor in Dark Brotherhood gear. With 1,355 endorsements and 25,385 downloads, it's a popular quality-of-life fix for players tired of seeing NPCs in inappropriate armor.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community favorite with 1,355 endorsements and 25k downloads
- Fixes a common immersion-breaking annoyance in Oblivion
- Lightweight and does exactly what it says
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2008 — may have issues with newer Oblivion patches or mods
- Author unknown, so no support or future updates

For Oblivion players who care about immersion and hate seeing merchants strut around in the armor you just sold them. If you're tired of Meldor's squeaky voice in tight black leather, this is for you. Skip if you don't mind NPCs wearing whatever they want.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Just drop the .esp into your Oblivion Data folder and enable it in the launcher.
- If you use a mod manager like OBMM or Wrye Bash, install it through that for easy uninstallation.
- Load order shouldn't matter much, but place it after other mods that alter merchant AI to be safe.
