Question
Arcadia, the alchemist in Solitude sold me this:
Is this an actual item or a bug?
Answer
In TES games the store works by having a chest under the floor, it's why you can pickpocket money you invested back without taking it actually from the shop. If taken it may break the shop and crash the game when you ask to see his [items].

Do not take it! I saw another post on this and the explanation was it is a glitch. Something about how it is actually the chest the game used to store the shop's loot (usually hidden). Taking it is supposedly a game breaker

This is because their on-person inventory does not correlate with their shop inventory, apparently it gets added to both.
Superduper game breaking spoiler about console commands:tcl inside a shop's cell, there's always a chest with the shops inventory under the floor you can take from. That's how Bethesda makes shops work and why pickpocketing the gold back does not effect the shop. Obviously world-event shops don't work this way. IIRC it was like this in Oblivion as well. ALSO: when it says Do Not Delete, do not... take that chest. Badbadbadbad.
