Larian Studios Forums Divinity - Original Sin Divinity - Original Sin - Enhanced Edition Try to sell to a vendor and get no gold in return

This one hit over on the Steam forum a few times.

Here's the deal. Higher level players and have considerable time spent in game. Suddenly when I go to sell 'dud' items to vendors so I can afford to ID the higher level items--

No gold gets transferred to my player(s) I've tried it on a few different vendors and it's doing it across the board. Now granted I can barter a fair amount, but to be blunt, it's better at times just to dump and collect the gold for items that are not usable.

Any ideas on when this might get fixed?

Check the containers in the characters' inventories (backpacks, etc, and there is a pouch container with the the same icon as a pouch of moondust or bonedust). It is likely gold added to their inventory is being stacked with gold in a container (possibly a crate picked up without looting first, etc).

Okay, found some of the missing gold. (Thanks Raze)

I'm still having an issue however with vendors. Sometimes (this does not happen all the time) I click on something to purchase. I then click the icon for balance it with gold/pay for it with gold.

I see the gold vanish from my total---but it never gets added to the screen where it shows my side-vs-vendor side.

So it vanishes and I click "accept" and get the usual "insulted by offer". Sure the gold is gone from my purse, but it never transfers to the vendor.

I've been bartering for a bit of stuff now. Gold seems to be twichey....

S-

Having gold in a container will cause this problem, as well. If a character has gold in a container and their inventory, when they trade, all the gold will be transferred to the container. The gold listed is that on other characters (in the PC version, using the mouse and keyboard controls), and using the balance icon transfers the gold from the other character, but it gets placed into the container rather than the trade window.
