Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim is a much-loved RPG, and Skyrim itself is a massive, strange land filled to the brim with a lot of things that are trying to kill you. But if the Dragonborn can contend with it all, they are lots of treasures and adventures waiting to be had. It’s an everlasting journey, full of many quests, many consequences, and many Septims.
So what are the most expensive items you can purchase in Skyrim? This list does not include the houses you can buy, as that would be half of the list. It also only has a few items from each category to make it fairer, and is based on merchant prices from being level 22 in Speech. With all that in mind, here are some of the most expensive purchases you can make in Skyrim, ranked.
Updated by Kristy Ambrose on March 16th, 2021: More explorers, traders, and mod developers mean that there are more valuable items to add to the list of expensive items in Skyrim. Some are fairly ordinary objects but exceedingly rare, driving up the price, while others are only available via quests or mods. The list covers everything from armor to trinkets, so save up those precious Septims for the following cool and unique accessories.
15 Nightweaver’s Band, 1131 Septims
Joining the Dark Brotherhood has some nice perks, one of the major ones being the sweet items. In this case, a shiny bit of jewelry. This ring is only available via the Dark Brotherhood quest “Recipe for Disaster.” Given that it’s connected to this notorious assassins guild, the Nightweaver’s Band is especially beneficial to murderers who need to sneak around. It improves your Sneak skill by 25%, makes your Destruction spells cost 25% less, and is worth 1131 Septims.
14 Deadly Magicka Poison, 1389 Septims
The Deadly Magicka Poison can be found at the Skyrim city of Falkreath at the alchemy shop called Grave Concoctions for the price of 1389 Septims. However, don’t let the name of the shop fool you, this place is excellent for all your alchemy-based needs.

This poison, when applied to a weapon, drains the target’s Magicka by 130 points when struck. It’s perfect for warriors who encounter a lot of mages out in Skyrim because there is nothing worse for a mage than running out of Magicka.
13 Ebony Armor, 1500 Septims
The whole set is worth as much as 3550 Septims depending on where you get it, and you can find it or make the Ebony Armor if you don’t want to spend the gold to buy it. Keep in mind that you need a skill of at least 80 Smithing to craft it, your character must in at least level 30 in order to use it, and it won’t be available for sale in shops or from blacksmiths until level 40. Every character in the game dons this four-piece armor set eventually, not only because it has some great buffs but also that it looks stone-cold badass.
12 Elixier Of Strength, 1706 Septims
As far as potions go, they can be found all over the place on your travels. On the shelves of bookcases, in chests, or even on the corpses of all the people who have tried and failed to kill the legendary Dragonborn.

However, one of Skyrim’s most expensive elixirs that you can buy in shops is the Elixir of Strength, for 1706 Septims. This item can be located in Solitude at the alchemy shop, Angeline’s Aromatics, or at Grave Concoctions over in Falkreath. This potion increases carrying capacity by 60 faster for 300 seconds, so perfect for drinking when deep inside a dungeon.
11 Amulet of Articulation, 2000 Septims
It’s worth about 2000 Septims depending on who you ask in Skyrim. The fluctuation is also due to the several different designs this item randomly takes when you complete the Thieves Guild questline, or you can loot it from Brynjolf’s corpse if your character isn’t interested in taking over from the previous management. This handy item not only looks great but also guarantees your success when using the Persuasion skill and buffs your Speech skill up to 35 points. That’s not just useful for getting good deals from traders and merchants.
10 Eye of the Falmer, 2500 Septims
Not literally, as this unfortunate race is lacking their eyes. This is actually a massive gem, and it’s one of the most valuable miscellaneous items in the game. It has no other use than to be really big and is worth 2500 Septims.
As your average adventurer might suspect, there is a left and a right eye, and they’re worth the same in Septims. They’re not found in the same place but are part of the same quest, which is aptly named “Blindsided.” The Falmer never seem to catch a break, do they?
9 Archmage’s Robes, 3265 Septims
Lined with luxurious fur and decorated with blue and grey embroidery, these robes are a reward that you get at the end of “The Eye of Magnus” quest. In fact, everything the former Archmage had, including his title, property, and quarters, also belongs to you. These robes are worth 3265 septims, but the real value here is the buffs and benefits. Your character has 50% more Magicka, spells cost 20% less Magicka to cast, and your Magicka regenerates at 150% faster. A fitting wardrobe for the Archmage of Winterhold.
8 Daedric Helmet, 4822 Septims
A perfect substitute for enchanted armor is the standard Daedric armor. The Daedric Helmet is the most expensive base helmet available in the entire region of Skyrim, and the price to purchase it is 4822 Septims. Though it’s quite pricey for a helmet it weighs 15 and has a defense of 25, which is not too shabby indeed.
However, the player has to own the Dragonborn downloadable content and complete a specific quest called the ‘Black Book: Untold Legends’ to access the merchant there, known as the Dremora Merchant, who sells this fantastic equipment.
7 Stalhrim BattleAxe, 6480 Septims
One of the best base weapons in the game is the Stalhrim BattleAxe. This weapon is perfect for those who are specced in two-handed weaponry and haven’t found a decent enchanted weapon yet. The Stalhrim Battleaxe can be brought for 6480 Septims, it weighs 25 and has a damage output of 27, which is incredibly decent when it comes to unenchanted weaponry.
This weapon can be bought in a few places, the village of Skald’s blacksmith sells Stalhrim weapons, and so does the blacksmith Glover Mallory, over in Raven Rock, near Solstheim.
6 Stalhrim Warhammer, 8590 Septims
The Stalhrim Warhammer can be purchased for 8590 Septims. It’s a bit weightier than the Stalhrim Battleaxe, with a weight of 29, but it also has greater damage than it, with 29. A perfect weapon for those who like to cause destruction. Stalhrim might not be as good as Daedric or Ebony, but players are able to acquire it much earlier, so it’s good to use until they obtain something stronger.
Like the battleaxe, only a few places sell Stalhrim equipment the easiest being the blacksmith at Raven Rock, Skald. Another place does sell it but this one is based on a condition, whether or not you have sided with the Nords throughout your journey. If you do then Thirsk Hall will also sell Stalhrim equipment.
5 Daedric Armor, 9645 Septims
For those who only wear the best of the best heavy armor, well, Daedric Armor is just that. However, it’s only available to purchase if you own the Dragonborn DLC, and have the finished the ‘Black Book: Untold Legends quest’. Once this has been completed, the portable Dremora Merchant is available for players to use to buy Daedric equipment.
Daedric Armor’s value is 9645 Septims, it weighs a hefty 50, but its defense makes up for it by being 52. This is the top tier purchase to make, especially if you are after the demonic presence vibe.
4 Daedric Armor Of Peerless Destruction, 12242 Septims
The best tier armor is the Daedric, so of course, enchanted Daedric armor is what players aim to acquire. Enchanted armor is amazing, but it depends on the type of enchantment you are looking for, as Magicka regeneration isn’t suitable for a player who only uses brute strength.
This armor’s value is 12242 Septims and it has a weight of 50 and a defense of 52. However, the enchant on this armor is why it’s so expensive, as Destruction spells cost 25% less to cast, which is perfect for a Battlemage. If you’re lucky enough and the Dremora Merchant has the Daedric Armor of Peerless Destruction available, it’s definitely worth a purchase.
3 Daedric Armor Of Revival, 14103 Septims
The best Daedric armor you can get from the Dremora Merchant is the Daedric Armor of Revival, which has a fantastic enchantment on it, as it regenerates health 50% faster than usual. Perfect for those who don’t like relying on potions. It weighs 50, has a defense of 52, and its price is 14103 Septims. This is one of the best armors you can purchase from the Dremora Merchant.
This armor is perfect for players who fight first and ask questions later and who don’t rely on stealth or ranged attacks for that initial advantage. For those after this armor, it’s sadly based on luck if it appears in the Dremora Merchants stock, but new items do appear every two days.
2 Daedric Battleaxe of Annihilating, 20552 Septims
The second best weapon you can get from the Dremora Merchant is the Daedric Battleaxe of Annihilating, it’s second only to the Warhammer variety. The enchantment of this weapon is that any Summoned Daedra up to level 36 is sent back to Oblivion. It has a damage of 28 and a weight of 27.
It might not be the best of its kind, but if you see this with the Dremora Merchant, it’s the best replacement until you find something better suited or the Warhammer type. The price of this weapon is 20552 Septims, which is pretty expensive, but this is one of the Annihilating enchanted weapons.
1 Daedric Warhammer of Annihilating, 24320 Septims
Daedric Warhammer of Annihilating is the most expensive weapon in the game, with a high price of 24320 Septims. It weighs 31, and its damage output is 30. The weapon enchantment on it is that any Summoned Daedra up to level 36 is sent back to Oblivion.
So for those after this powerful Warhammer, you might be lucky and find this one with the Dremora Merchant. This banish enhancement is the most powerful found upon any bought items. However, this weapon begins to circulate the land of Skyrim when the Dragonborn reaches level 53, so don’t expect it to buy it from the Dremora Merchant before then.
