Can't buy poison??

The guy in the shop gives me th price - 100 gold. the option to buy is not available, my options only say 'farewell'.

 

What?

do u mean the poison that u need to buy for the thiefs? (to get the dagger?)

 

yeah, thats the stuff. From that gruenwald fella.

 

Well........

he says to you that he wont sell his poisons to everybody, you need to say to him that you have rats, and than ogres (or orcs?)!
than he will sell it to you!

 

I did all that. Then he says he hates orcs, and the price is 100 gold, not a penny less.

My available response at that point is:
Farewell

 

You have to get the quest from the Thief first also

 

AH!

I think he already did!
what other reason he has to buy a poison?

 

did that as well.

 

then you might try pickpocket on him it worked for me

 

AH!

i think this is a bug!
what version do you use?

 

died when I pickpocketed him.

Took the other quest, the one with the hedgewiz. The undead guy was not enough help to kill the thieves, so I restored my save and had to kill the hedgewiz to get the statue.... I'm only level 5. Should I be here yet?

 

a!

ohh man you are sure advancing slow!
who you playing?

 

half elf with haggle bonus (shopkeeper son)
Playing Majik orientation. I'm just a little shy of level 6. I've done most of the quests for shrouded hills (but not gone to tarant yet). Went to Dernholm and now blackroot

 

it's "magick".

 

well!

now that u in blackroot u can take the liam quest and you will advance FAST , REALLY fast!
(the trick is to lure the monster away from the portal and the kill him, then rest until u heal and do the whole procees again and again!
after 1/2 hour u will be something like level 20!
