Help with bag sellers

FancyTuna8 · June 2015

Hello,
I know where the bag lady is in Daggerfall, but in Aldmeri I went straight to the island and haven't been back yet. I'm trying to find out if the only bag sellers are in the starting cities for all 3 factions, or do you find them in any other towns as you get to new areas?
Oh, and semi-related: concerning how to spend gold, I've been spending it all on bag space and bank space so far. At what point is it better to get a mount, or is there anything more important to do with gold early on? Thanks for help.

If your questing in Auridon, you'll find one in Skywatch. After you go through the main gate they are down in the steps where all of the little vendor shops are.

If you head back to Vuhkelguard there is a pack merchant there. Head to the middle zone where the clothing/blacksmith stations are.. then kind of head towards the bank. On your right (before going into the "courtyard" of the bank) you'll see a store that you can head inside of - there's a pack merchant in there

Spend money on upping your riding skills, only can train once a day and 180 upgrades in total

Thanks for all the answers. Playing multiple characters right now and sometimes forget where something was. So mount first over 6k for 10 more slots, right?

I love the fact that Quaranon's store is called the Handy Haversack. But then, I was always a big fan of Heward's Handy Haversack in AD&D.

It probably is best to get the cheapest mount first (10K) and start your mount training right away, putting 250 gold into it each day. The only reason is that (crown store items aside) it takes a full 180 days to max out your mount, so the earlier you start the better.

Once you're doing that, though, you're probably best off spending all of your gold (aside from the 250/day you're using for your mount) on bag and bank space.

Oh. My. God.

I totally missed that.

And I started with the blue box of booklets, I'll have you know.

I started with the red box back in the mid 80s, but then I inherited a bunch of older stuff from my sister's (at the time) boyfriend...

You may upset her if you call her a bag lady, I got up to 80 items in my inventory but still could do with loads more, I'm thinking of chucking my provisions next . A question : the inventory is for 80 separate items but you can have as many multiples of one item as you like ie 60x iron ore (would still be one slot)?

It depends. Some items stack and others don't. Crafting materials (like iron ore) stack up to 200 in one slot. Things like weapons, recipes, and all kinds of other things don't stack at all. I could be wrong, but I have a feeling that consumables like food, drinks, and potions only stack up to 100 instead of 200 like crafting mats do.

Yes. Food and potions stack to 100.

I find it funny that for purposes of encumbrance (oh, wait, that's too hard a concept for today's games) 100 chunks of iron ore take up as much carrying capacity as a recipe. I wish games like this would let you hire a henchman who would pull a cart around carrying all your stuff (you could train him like a horse!) Would be especially fun if the henchman ran and cowered whenever you got into a fight, and periodically said funny/cowardly/sarcastic things (i.e. the comedy relief.)

I started with the blue and red boxes as well, still nostalgic for that version of D&D.

Someday I want a mod that will do this!

Gotta fold it nicely so it won't rip, smudge or get to close to, zombie liver, the severed head of that quest orc, 14 different kinds of open topped drink containers and the 88 rabbit guts you also have in that same bag

If you think I only have 88 rabbit guts in my bag...
