Where to sell Dragon Bones and Scales

Question

There's a great question on what to do with dragon bones and scales, and there's even a question on whether you can buy them, but the question I'm after:

Question: Where can one sell those blasted Dragon Bones and Scales? Is there a list of merchants that will buy them?

Edit: I'm not looking for just a vendor, but preferably a list of vendors (as I've collected about 25 of the them). The ultimate answer would also have an indication of (approximate) amount of gold available on the merchant.

After some searching I found a list of merchants on the Skyrim Wiki, but that doesn't answer my question. The page on Dragon Bone gives a little bit of info on selling them, but no clue on where to sell them.

My follower would certainly be very thankful for any answer to this question, as she's probably getting tired of hauling this loot around...

Answer

Any general goods store will take them: the two ones you'll hit early on are the Riverwood Trader in Riverwood and Belethor's General Goods in Whiterun. Others include:

• Arnleif and Sons Trading Company in Markarth
• Gray Pine Goods in Falkreath
• Pawned Prawn in Riften
• Sadri's Used Wares in Windhelm

General goods stores, without the "Master Trader" perk, generally seem to have around 750 gold.

I just confirmed LessPop_MoreFizz's suggestion that apothecaries (potion shops) take them, too: Arcadia's Cauldron, for example. Others include:

• Thaumaturgist's Hut in Morthal
• Grave Concoctions in Falkreath
• The Hag's Cure in Markarth
• The Mortar and Pestle in Dawnstar
• Angeline's Aromatics in Solitude

Apothecaries, without the "Master Trader" perk, generally seem to have around 500 gold.

Beyond that, if you invest in the "Merchant" perk in the Speech skill, you'll be able to sell them anywhere you want, and if you invest in "Master Trader", every merchant will have a ton more gold.

The easiest thing to do is do a circuit amongst the general goods stores and apothecaries (or, if you have "Merchant" and/or "Master Trader", all stores in an area). By the time you're done fast traveling, you'll likely have spent 48 hours and can sell to the original merchant again. But if that's still not convenient, sell to a merchant, and wait 24 hours twice: (relatively) instant restock.

Can I get back unique guns I've sold in Borderlands?

Question

There are many unique guns in Borderlands, and when they don't look particularly useful I sell them. If I want to get them back, is there any way? Will the merchant I sold them to have them in his inventory?

This happened to me recently with Sledge's shotgun and I was hoping I could retrieve it somehow.

Answer

When you sell an item to a vendor, that item will be placed in a buyback list at the vendor. But, if you either quit the game, or leave the zone where you sold the items, this buyback list will reset itself, and the items will become unavailable.
There is also a cap of 20 items in this list, meaning if you sell 21 items, the first item you sold will be gone from that list.

Can I safely sell all Junk?

Question

In Dragon Age 2, can I sell all items labeled "Junk" without having to fear I would need any of this later? (for quests/crafting/etc)

Vials of Darkspawn Blood for example were a quest item in Dragon Age: Origins, I think, and are labeled junk in DA2.

Answer

Yes: junk is just that. You can safely sell it all.
