I was still having money issues then. I think they stopped having
money issues sometime aroun 20th lv (about 10 levels later) when I
started getting stuff that sold at the 1200 cap.
I still bring back almost everything that isn't nailed down sometimes
using 3 feather+strength potions to get my carrying capacity up around
1400, habit I guess. I've got about 100k and not sure what to do with
it. I was stacking up to keep my weapons charged up, but now that I
figured out I can use can use soul gems & the star, and my magica is
high enough to cast soul trap, I'm not having problems with that
either. I've got my one house, don't really see a reason to have more
than one.
My favorite merchants are all in Skingrad. The nirnroot alchemist only
has a cap of 400, but you can really crank up the haggle on him to get
the best prices on alchemical ingredients and selling your spare
potions. The general merchant is great at earlier levels, as he seems
to give the best prices with a cap of 800. And there's Agnes the
Pickled, the weapon/armor merchant with a cap of 1200 - since
everything that's worth that much (so far) is 1200+ she's the girl for
me now.
