Description:
This mod changes the amount of gold that all Merchants, Innkeepers, Wizards, Fence Merchants, Alchemist and Street vendors have.

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
- Massive community trust: 74,580 endorsements and 2.8M downloads
- Solves the classic 'merchant ran out of gold' problem instantly
- Works with the Master Trader perk, so high-level selling stays smooth
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2017 — may not be compatible with the latest Skyrim Special Edition or Anniversary Edition updates
- No configuration options beyond the three gold multipliers (2x, 5x, 10x) — no custom values
- Could make the game too easy for players who want a balanced economy
For Skyrim players who hate making multiple trips to sell loot because merchants run out of gold. Also great for hoarders and crafters who sell tons of potions or enchanted gear. Skip if you prefer a challenging economy or want more granular control over merchant wealth.
💡 Beginner Tips
- If you're on Skyrim Special Edition, check if the mod has an SE version or use the Nexus Mods 'Mod Manager Download' button for automatic installation.
- Choose the 10x multiplier if you're a heavy looter; 2x is more balanced for a vanilla-like experience.
- Load order doesn't matter much for this mod, but place it after other economy mods to ensure your changes take effect.
