Whiterun: Belethor isn't selling anything!

[Just Mythic]

I bought the Legendary Edition, put unofficial patches in the same folder, and now I've run into the nasty bug where Belethor won't sell anything to me.

EDIT: Thanks to Veux for a solution.

is he still alive and won't talk to you, or did the Vampy's kill him and he is never in his store

[Just Mythic]

Oh, he's still alive and as a counter-measure for vampire attacks I made essential, as I did Adrianne Avenicci, Amren, and Ysolda.

Belethor still talks to me and I can come and go through his store, but his selling option is not available, just talking about how it's hard to come by stuff these days. Regular Belethor talk.

go outside his store make a save then load that save then go back in and see if that helps

[Just Mythic]

Nope, that didn't work.

i had this very problem myself but for the live of me i do not remember how i got through it-sorry i couldn't help.

Thanks for trying. I know that the guys who worked on the Unofficial Skyrim Patch did encounter this (it's listed in the changelog), but the problem itself is still unknown. Once you encounter this bug it's very likely that it's permanent - I probably have to start a new game.

1 the proplem is the store area and day tiem might be bugged 1 go out side the store wait 2 days so he resets then try reenter if that doenst help remove essential kill him then mark his corps and type ressurect soemtiems on idiotic bugs it helps.

[Void#151625]

and if all that doenst help remove all your mods and only put the unofficla patcher below all esm and have on top skyrim unofficial then dawnguard below then hearthfires below then dragonborn alastly
can be load order and mods that bug too either way bit debuging you need on yoru end to get it work

[Void#151625]

in worst case it might be a mod that moved belethors chest and that why belethor cant sell anything anymore

[Trigger]

Sexy well-stocked crafting merchants and fences is a great mod.

Or I could go out adventuring for roughly two days and come back to see if he's better. I've already tried unmarking him as essential, killing him, and then resurrecting him - that didn't work. I did have one mod, but that was a house mod that conflicted with entering Breezehome (I've since gotten rid of it). I wouldn't call them mods per say, but all I have are the unofficial patches for the core game and DLC excluding the High-Res Pack.

You don't need to make him essential - if he's killed another NPC in town will take over his store.

Exactly what method did you use to make him essential? If you used console commands then you very likely corrupted his scripting.

nice it worked
