Fallout 4 Best Place to Sell Weapons, Chems, Loot Items – VeryAli Gaming

Selling weapons, armor, chems, and even drugs are a top-tier approach to earning Caps, but the selling strategy involves various factors. Some vendors offer higher prices than others, while some may lack sufficient Caps to buy in bulk.

To optimize your selling approach, seek multiple merchants throughout the game for fast transactions and mutually beneficial exchanges. Additionally, keep an eye out for scattered merchants on the map. You may also encounter random traveling NPCs willing to purchase your items for Caps.

I will now list some of the best merchants and their locations to help you sell your items efficiently.

10. Arturo Rodriguez in Diamond City

Best Selling Place for Ammo & Armor.

Arturo Rodriguez

Arturo Rodriguez’s shop stands out as one of the best places to sell, especially for ammo and armor. You can also sell various scrap items like Aluminum for a decent amount of Caps.

Arturo is a highly recommended vendor due to his accessibility to players. His shop is conveniently located near Sanctuary, ensuring easy access.

He consistently carries a substantial amount of Caps, typically ranging from 300 to 450 Caps, making it a profitable choice for selling your inventory.

9. Myrna In Diamond City

Best Selling Place for Junk & Ammo.

Right next door to Arturo Rodriquez, you can find Myrna. She is a store owner with limited timings from 8 am to 8 pm. All you need to do is speak to her, and she will reveal all the secrets about the Synths. 

Apart from her characteristics, she has quite a few interests in junk and ammo. It means you can sell her your looted junk to earn a good amount of Caps. However, that purely depends on the value of Charisma you have on your character.

On the other side, perks like Cap Collector also go a long way to make the best deals for the stuff you are selling.

8. Solomon In Diamond City

Best Selling Place for Chems.

Since players mostly roam around Diamond City, Solomon is another best place to sell chems that you must visit. He is also available for limited timings of 8 am to 8 pm. Upon first interaction, players will open Solomon’s Barter inventory.

Here you will see chems and aids, which means he will be happy to trade chems for some Caps.

If you also have a bulk load of chems to sell, reach his shop front Chem-I-Care and easily trade it off for Caps. It is good riddance with some sweet earnings. Solomon mostly has over 350 Caps in his inventory, which seems like an excellent payoff for bulk selling.

7. KL-E-O In Goodneighbor

Best Selling Place for Weapons & Armor.

KL-E-O is a female programmed assaultron: a merchant by job and a killer by night. This merchant is available in Goodneighbor with a shopfront named “Kill or Be Killed” just above the Diamond City landmark on the map.

KL-E-O also has Caps of around 350 to pay you for your selling stuff. This will allow players to barter for better prices. If you can get a hand on a Speech Bobblehead, you can increase this Cap value to +100 for every merchant in the game.

6. Synth Requisition Officer In The Institute

Best Selling Place for High-Value Items.

Synth Requisition Officer is The Institute’s prime vendor available to players upon first interaction. To get this vendor, players will have to complete a series of storyline quests to get the option of joining the Institute faction.

He will accept and sell ammunition, weapons, and armor to the players. These all are pretty high-value items, thus giving players an edge to earn good profits by selling.

5. Daniel Finch

Best Out-of-the-Way Vendor.

Daniel Finch is a rare merchant found at the Finch Farms. Most players would miss him because they are abundant in the Diamond City and Goodneighbor.

But just because these merchants will purchase items from you does not mean they will hand out good Caps every time you sell something. For that instance, players will have to branch out to other near and easily accessible options.

He can be found working with his family on a small farm outside the building structure. Your character may have already encountered the family during the “Out of the Fire” quest. This is a storyline quest, and if you have not played it yet, you may have to pursue that before going for the merchant.

Daniel Finch is not a good merchant in terms of inventory. He will only sell some junk items and misc. But that does not mean your character can not earn some Caps out of these.

Plus, he can make a great settlement seller for you if you plan to expand your Caps business even further in the future.

4. The Scribe

Best Long-Term Investment Vendor.

What makes him worthy is he is an armor emporium and will trade stuff related to armor. This does require a couple of perks like Local Leader and Cap Collector. But in the end, it is definitely worth the investment.

Finding the Scribe is not going to be an easy feat. This is because he is a random traveler and will not have a fixed location on the map to dialogue with your character. There is a guaranteed location where he will spawn most of the time.

This location is Cambridge Police Station, where the Scribe roams around and is available to your character. All you need to do is talk and ask him to work for your settlement. Next, he will agree, and here you have it, a merchant of your own that will sell you quite a lot of armor pieces for good Caps.

3. Daisy In Goodneighbor

Best Back-Up Merchant.

If you have reached the Cap limit for KL-E-O, right next door to her shop, you can find Daisy in the Goodneighbor. She is another good merchant who will trade weapons, armor, guns, and different aids.

She is a Ghoul merchant that pays out some good Caps if you have enough Charisma on your character.

On the other side, Daisy will have the Caps range from 350 to 400 with some pretty good items to trade. If you have enough time, you can listen to her history of running the business while being a Ghoul.

She also has some quests that will allow you to gain her trust, thus enabling your character to earn more by doing business with her.

2. Isabel Cruz from Automatron

Best Expansion-Specific Merchant.

She has a background in robotics and mainly focuses on circuitry shipments. But her inventory may also contain some armor pieces and weapons that you can trade after gaining her trust.

It is important to note that this is an antagonist character and will start a series of crucial quests. She can be found in The Mechanist Lair with over 200 Caps that you can claim yourself after a trade.

All you need to do is speak to Isabel at the Mechanist Lair. After some quests, she will allow players to access her inventory to trade the stuff they have for sale.

1. Proctor Teagan

Best Overall Merchant.

The Brotherhood of Steel’s favorite Proctor Teagan is also a famous trader, yet most players always overlook him for selling the stuff. Those players who joined hands with the mighty Brotherhood of Steel might be aware of Proctor Teagan and his tons of deals in energy weapons and heavy miniguns.

He also trades for heavy armors to players; after all, he is the Proctor of Brotherhood of Steel.

Proctor Teagan has over 650 Caps, making him the best place to sell in Fallout 4. Before going for a trade, he might need to set the players up for some quests. After that, players can visit him to sell the essentials and earn the Cap profits.

Why Others Were Not Chosen?

1. Cricket: Stock and Caps are quite limited, and finding her can be time-consuming.

2. Doctor Sun (Covenant): Requires access to Covenant, which means completing a quest or potentially alienating other factions.

3. Trashcan Carla: Similar to Cricket, her inventory and Caps can be low, and she travels a lot.

4. Trudy (Drumlin Diner): The relatively low amount of Caps compared to other options can be involved in a potential conflict at the Diner.

5. Alexis Combes (Vault 81): Vault 81 access requires another quest and a donation to enter.

6. Rylee (General Trading Post): She needs to be “recruited” to a settlement as part of a specific set of actions.

What Would I Recommend?

As a seasoned Fallout 4 player, I highly recommend prioritizing Proctor Teagan as the top vendor for selling weapons and armor in Fallout 4. He consistently has a massive cap reserve (over 650!) which ensures you get top dollar without draining his supply as easily as other merchants. Teagan’s affiliation with the Brotherhood of Steel also means he specializes in the gear you’ll likely be accumulating as you explore.

For quick and accessible selling of general loot, Myrna in Diamond City makes an excellent choice. Specializing in junk and ammo, she provides consistently good prices backed by a generous cap count. Myrna’s convenient location, right next door to Arturo (another fantastic vendor), makes selling your haul a breeze, minimizing downtime and keeping your adventure flowing.
