I've been relatively liberal with mindreading so far, so didn't get taken by either of them. After I hit level 13 or 14 I went by Noryfundus to sell some excess stuff, and (after saving) tried buying a couple things to see what would happen. I bought the earrings the first meeting, but by the time I have 3 enchantments worth using, better jewelry with that many enchantment slots will probably start showing up.
