Forum:Selling Guns

Where (or with whom) is the best place to sell my excess guns. I have more than I need to repair the guns I use and some that I don't use at all. Which vendor would generally have the best prices? —Preceding unsigned comment added by D3fiant80 (talk • contribs). Please sign your posts with ~ !
 * Your best bet is someone that likes you and has a lot of money. I'd recommend exhausing the caps of the vendors who like you most first, then move on to others who have a more neutral opinion of you. For example, if you saved Goodsprings, then the bartender and the other shopkeeper in that town, as well as Doc Mitchell, are likely to offer good prices. Likewise with Primm and Mr. Nash (I forget his first name). -- 16:30, May 15, 2011 (UTC)
 * Khans Armory buys at full price if you are at least acccepted with them, Blake if you break-in the Guns Runners and retrive the weapons manifest for Crimson Caravans, Van Graffs if you complete their mission and let Cass die and Contreras if you side with him. It's interesting that Chet in Goodsprings don't sell or buy at discount, even after you save the town. Nash in Primm only sell or buy with good prices if you put Meyers in charge of the law, but the guy is a criminal and serves him right being incarcerated at NCRCF (that's why I usually put Primm Slim as a sheriff or the NCR if I'm siding with them). The rest will be dependent of your barter skill. Brfritos 04:12, May 16, 2011 (UTC)
 * You can get a discount from Chet if you side with the Powder Gangers, not if you save the town. Also the bartenders at Gomorrah buy at full price and sell at list price regardless of reputation however they have very little cash.75.67.224.12 09:15, May 21, 2011 (UTC)
 * You've got to be kidding me!!! No way in hell I will sacrifice a town that cared me when I was almost dead and kill Sunny Smiles, who teached me a few things without wanting something in return. :P But even if I considered this, Chet is a crap seller, he items are so-so. That's the problem with keeping NCRCF, Carter usually have good money (more than Nash in Primm, BTW), but his items are also not good in the long run. Brfritos 11:49, May 26, 2011 (UTC)

Right, start selling to friendly folks. Gun Runners, the quartermaster at Hoover Dam, and the chick at Mojave Outpost are the ones I go to the most. When the followers (cant remember her name) the doctor chick in the old Mormon fort, when she starts selling you magazines, then I use her quite a bit too. The chick at Mojave, I use her when its time to repair my stuff.Pappy002 22:12, May 15, 2011 (UTC)

Chet will give you a discount if you help the powder gangers take over the town, and the opposite for Trudy, save the town, and she gives you a discount. Though you might have to do a barter or speech check for Chet, I don't remember. Pappy002 04:37, May 16, 2011 (UTC)

I just sell to whoever's buying. If they have caps, we have business. Even at level 2 with a shit barter skill I'm rolling in dough from stealing anything that isn't nailed down and selling it back to whoever owned it, along with reselling the weapons, ammo, and chems of fallen enemies. It's too easy to get caps to worry about any specific strategy. I&#39;m the best at space!


 * Uh, you can't sell something to the person you stole it from - it doesn't show up in the list of things to sell. HughesJohn 16:07, May 18, 2011 (UTC)
 * I do it all the time. Every time I do the quest that involves boosting Gun Runner's manufacturing specs I also steal whatever they're building at the time. I then sell it right back to the Vendertron before I head back to Crimson Caravan. Cool 1500-2500 caps on a crappy gun I won't use anyways. I&#39;m the best at space!
 * It depends on who it is, some you can and others you cant. Personally I never saw a need to steel anything, theres so much you can get that doesn't need to be stolen I don't see the point.  To answer the OP, I usually sell to the gun runners kiosk outside their factory next to Freeside.  They always have about 8000 caps on hand and I buy all my ammo there anyway.

Gun Runners will always have 8000 caps every 24 hours Kaldhore 01:44, May 22, 2011 (UTC)

There's no guarantee that they will always have 8,000 caps. There is, however, a guarantee that they will always have several thousand caps in merchandise. Portable investment. That you carry around. And kill people with. User:Idon'tevenknow 02:15, May 22, 2011

Well in my game (xbox) they ALWAYS have 8000 caps every 24-36 hours Kaldhore 05:00, May 22, 2011 (UTC)

What level are you at? I'm up at level 34, and I still have to wait until Sunday or Wednesday for them to regenerate caps. I'm on Xbox, with latest update. User:Idon'tevenknow

Level 40 now but have used the Gun Runners like this for ages. All I have to do is sleep or wait for 24 hours to make sure a whole day has passed. Ive sold 10 of my Gold Bars from DM this way. Although the Crimson Caravan guy sometimes has more than 10k caps (rarely).Kaldhore 03:07, May 23, 2011 (UTC)

You can also do the vendor inventory reset exploit by saving then exiting to the main menu (not the load menu) and the reloading. This resets the vendors inventory and caps on most systems.75.67.224.12 05:03, May 25, 2011 (UTC)

I think all faction with a reputation of idolized. I only have BoS, so I only sell guns to them. -James Jr 11:51, May 26, 2011 (UTC)
