Description:
This mod changes the amount of gold that all Merchants, Innkeepers, Wizards, Fence Merchants, Alchemist and Street vendors have.
You can choose between 3 version, 2x / 5x / 10x the vanilla gold.
There is also an optional setting that allows you to change the amount of gold you get from the master trader perk.
This is based on the setting you chose before.

Is this mod compitable with this mod?
- Yes, it is compitable with all mods that change the loot system. If the mod changes the merchants gold load my mod last.
- Yes, it is compitable with all mods that change the speech tree.
Will the 10x version bug merchants?
- No, I have reduced the amount Fence Merchants gain every tier so this shouldn't be an issue anymore.
The Master Trader perk doesn't display the right amount of gold!
- No, for compatibility reason I haven't changed the actual perk itself.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community favorite with 2,087 endorsements and over 55k downloads.
- Simple and effective—just pick your multiplier and go.
- Works for all vendor types, so no more running across Skyrim to sell your loot.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2017—might have issues with the latest Skyrim versions or mod setups.
- No detailed instructions on installation or compatibility, so you're on your own if something breaks.
- The description cuts off mid-sentence, leaving the optional feature unclear.
For Skyrim players who hate hoarding loot because merchants run out of gold. Also for traders and completionists who want to sell high-value items without fast-traveling everywhere. Skip if you prefer a more challenging economy or use mods that overhaul merchant gold in other ways.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Pick the 2x version if you want a subtle boost; 10x can make money trivial.
- If you're using a mod manager, just download and activate—no load order tweaks needed.
- Since it's from 2017, test it with your current Skyrim setup to ensure it works.
