Save before talking to elemental/trader selling thief skill books....talk to elemental, check inventory, if he's got it buy, if not load and try again...repeat until you get it...????....Profit.
Will this work for all vendors with skills and gear?
For example, if I am looking for a 2-handed axe and the vendor does have it, could I do the save/reload trick to see if he will have it? Or does it only work for skill books?
In any case, this trick sounds good to get the skills that you want, early in the game
