F1: how to buy expensive stuff?!

[FreeHansje]

So I am at Jakes in the Hub, wishing to buy combat armor. There is not enough money around and I cannot carry enough stuff to pay for the arnor to buy the armor with trading items.
Any way how to do this?

Uhuhuhuhuhuhuu-huhuhuhuh-huhuh-uh-huh-huh, he said "e-penis"

Anyway, you can convert your loot to cash one bit at a time at Beth's Gun Shoppe and Rumour Mill. She will magically regenerate bottle caps every time you go to a conversation. Use your NPCs as mules when you're at your carry capacity.

Really?! Beth regenerates b-caps?! I had not noticed that, have to look her up, then. Tnx!

Actually most of them do. Jake has more than Beth, too.

Raid the military base. You'll have more flamethrowers, plasma rifles, rocket launchers, and miniguns than you could ever hope to carry.

Or you could go gambling..

Or keep saving, loading and stealing caps from generic people. They have a certain amount (10-50) every time you reload. That's called a fast way to get rich.
