📋 About This Mod
Gianna\'s Sundries, a Fence v1. 1 *DO NOT DL Version 1. 0, it is there only as a matter of record. Grab 1. 1... :) -------------------------------- General Information Gianna Maddicci is an extremely rich noblewoman from very far away, who has come to Tamriel, and Cyrodiil in particular, to further her enterprises. She\'s a con woman turned fence for the Thieves\' Guild, but will buy and sell to anyone. She\'s not the \"sneaky, rob your house while you\'re home\" kind of thief, she\'s the \"Con you out of everything you own, including the clothes off your back, and leave\" kind of thief. Being a professional con artist, she is a Master Trainer in Speechcraft. Unfortunately for her, and great for you, she sucks at mercantile. She is a full fledged Member of the Thieves\' Guild, so if you steal from her or attack her while in the Thieves\' Guild, you will be penalized. Once you enter the IC Market District, you will receive a quest to find her. No map marker, sorry, but it shouldn\'t be that tough to figure out if you think about it or look around. Once you find her shop, the quest completes. NOTE: Because she is a Fence for the Thieves\' Guild, selling to her will count towards the \"Independent Thievery\" quests that you encounter during the Thieves\' Guild quest line. Not only that, it will count even if you aren\'t a member of the Thieves\' Guild yet. If you sell a crapload of stuff to her, and then join the Thieves\' Guild later on, you will automatically complete these quests each time they are required. While an unintended side effect, it\'s not something I consider bad. I actually think it\'s pretty cool. If you have an issue with this, and plan to join the Thieves\' Guild later on, simply do not use her until you are a member. I made this mod for personal use, frustrated when I found several expensive items, in the 15-25k range, and had to sell them for less than 3,000 gold. As such, she has 50,000 available gold. Be warned, you will get rich. Really rich. There are some things to offset this however. Firstly, is housing. Buying housing in the game, combined with the costs of upgrades, can set you back a lot, and should serve to filter away some of that cash. Second, Gianna sells several special items. A couple of rare, enchanted weapons I pulled randomly from the loot tables, some soul gems, a crapload of books, some miscellaneous items, Welkynd Stones, and a couple of Varla Stones. Most notably, however, she sells \"Knock-Offs\" of Rare Artifacts. Annoyed that the Spellbreaker Shield is enchanted, when it looks so cool? She sells an unenchanted version. Anything unique in the game that I could dig up, including the Amulet of Kings, has been duplicated here, unenchanted, free of Scripts and Quest Item tags. The original versions weren\'t touched, the mod is clean, so don\'t worry. She also sells a Steel Bow that has been upgraded to Daedric Levels, called the Lethal Bow. I don\'t like the look of the Daedric
Adds a new Thieves Guild Fence in the Market District with a high gold reserve, allowing players to sell expensive items without losing value. She sells to anyone, including non-guild members. A simple, functional mod for Oblivion players seeking a better merchant.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- No more selling 20,000 gold items for 3,000 — this fence has the coin to pay fair prices.
- Open to all players, not just Thieves Guild members, so anyone can use her services.
- Community-tested with 125 endorsements and over 2,200 downloads.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2008 — may have compatibility issues with newer Oblivion versions or mods.
- Only adds one merchant; if you wanted a full shop overhaul, this isn't it.
For Oblivion players who are tired of merchants running out of gold when selling high-value loot. Also great for non-Thieves Guild characters who want a discreet fence without joining the guild. Skip if you're looking for a full merchant overhaul or new shop interiors.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since the mod is from 2008, consider using a mod manager like OBMM or Wrye Bash to avoid conflicts.
- The fence is hidden in the Market District — check alleys and less-traveled corners to find her.
- If you're using other mods that alter the Market District, load this one after them to ensure placement.
