    Zolan's Junk Handler addon means I don't have to worry about 0g junk. I just go to a vendor and click "E" and then "X" all of a sudden all my ornate items, worthless, and any item I specifically mark as junk get sold automatically.

    Either you auto loot then take time to sell junk, or you have to pause a few sec after every pull to loot manually and take time to choose which items you want to pickup. I rather auto loot.

    I auto loot everything, the 0 value items are a minor inconvenience. Worth the inconvenience for that motif you might otherwise miss in an insignificant looking container. Time is money not using auto loot is way too slow.
    Everything will be alright in the end, if its not alright its not the end.

    It is annoying because they used to have a value. Not much, But over time it would add up. I believe they nerfed the values Post Morrowind because of the urn farmers? Correct me if im wrong, But I feel like when I first started farming urns over there, I used to could sell the white items for like 9 gold or something like that. Spend a few hours doing that and you would have a few thousand gold. I still pick them up because auto loot lol, And it takes less time to pick them up and click one button to sell to my merchant than to manually loot the items I want and leave the trash.

    However having auto loot on is very nice if farming for blueprints. Mats is an bonus, the 0 gold items is annoying.
    Grinding just make you go in circles.
    Asking ZoS for nerfs is as stupid as asking for close air support from the death star.

    Many games doesn't have numerous features players want. Either this features provided by mods or not. Nothing you can do about it.

    Ignornace is al i am reading

    Considering the lack of information in the OP. We cannot read minds.
    Go through your craft bag and check on how many items are worth gold...the be annoyed they must be destroyed because they have no value

    This would have been great information to have provided in the OP so it was clear what you are speaking of. We could also provide an appropriate response and explain why.
    Im talking about lvl 1-10 crafting items wood, alchemy items etc. Noone buys it and is usless to many many players. I am just saying that ALL in game items should have a value no matter how small. If it is lootable inventory, it should carry a value greater than 0. Trial npc should carry more than 3 gold also ;)

    Then I see this and you get more specific. Again, great information that should have been included in the OP.

    If the OP is informative then the responses might seem more appropriate.

    Further, looking through my crafting bag and the lowest level materials have a value which is what vendors would buy it for. Selling it to a player will still provide a value though lower level materials are not in as much of a demand.

    In other words, if you do not want materials with such value in your bag do not pick them up. It really is that simple and was mentioned in the earlier posts.

    That's right. Leave the junk there for the next person who shows up just to irritate them.

    It's also amazing how "foul hides" and "gnawed bones" are worth more than deadly weapons made of metal that could be melted down to use in constructing many things if nothing else.

    It isn't really your point, but: deconstruct them, and if you get iron ingots those vendor for 4g each, so ... the weapons without change don't have value, but their component parts (eg: the melted down part) do. :)

    Except that they don't usually deconstruct to anything, much more rarely than items with gold value even do. I don't remember the last time a zero gold item gave me any materials on deconstruct, even though it should have a much higher chance due to being easier to deconstruct, as other games have done with crafting-logic.

    It doesnt matter what item it is. At base value ALL items should have a value greater than 0 when selling to a merchant. That is all i was trying to say. I am looking at some things like poison reagents like alkahest will craft 15p poison worth 600 gold per 200 at the merchant. Where as the the one that crafts lvl 3 poison are worth 0 to a merchant and i have 13k..so they are usless and have no value is the root of the complaint and the list goes on. I loot everything because u have to take the good with the bad. But the bad should cost more than 0 gold. That in which lies the problem

    Just take everything and deal with it yourself especially from chests and thieves troves. Not dealing with it means someone else has to and I have a news flash for you: Your time is no more important than anyone else's.

    If you want to continue leaving crap for others, I'll wish you a nice day and the worst possible RNG in perpetuity.

    Why if its worthless is it even in game... Is it to pad out those useless containers with nothing...

    Agreed. It would be a major QOL if they removed all trait items save for Nirn in BS/C/WW and Swift/Triune/Bloodthirsty/Harmony/Infused in Jewelry.

    I'd further that to say they should remove Jejota and upgrade Ta to green. Simply because Jejota is so pointless.

    Also, since the introduction of Furniture mats, they missed an opportunity to cull some trash items. We now get a Clean Pelt that sells for 2g and is used for furniture. Where the Trash Pelt is only for selling to Merchants and sells for 9g. They should have simply made the Clean Pelt as both Furniture mat and something to vendor for 9g, removing the Trash Pelt all together.

    ZOS has no regard for the amount of garbage in the game. I've had friends try to get into this and get turned away by the sheer amount of trash they had to sort through, even after I put addons on their system.

    Though, to be fair, when I first read the OP, I thought it was from 2014, not 2018. So it's fresher than I'd thought.

    White items found in containers never had value. When the game came out, there were no white items in containers, but all the gear you see lying around on weapon racks and tables and such was also not interactable. People complained that it was immersion breaking, so ZOS made them lootable, but gave them 0 value so people wouldn't just farm and sell them.

    Then when the justice system came out, the white stolen items got a value, but not the ones that were not stolen property.

    Now, should they remove white 0 value items from containers? Sure! But the ones out in the world, I think should remain with no value.
