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 smile


Within reason....vendors aren't going to start selling things they don't sell so don't expect the elementals selling skillbooks to start selling axes but the save/reload trick will get them to change up the skillbooks they carry if they don't have the specific spell you're looking for.
