Buy something from merchant and then you lockpicking his/her inventory chests (very hard) and you can get your money back. Free items, weapons & armours.
Of course you need a good lockpicking skill.
There war nothing more in the chest because I took everything first 
Glad to hear it’s fixed because I already plan to do another playthrough and hope not to found this next time.
My lock picking is at 20, I was referring to the st George armor bug.
lol at this butthurt
In case no one’s figured it out yet, the Wandering Knight or whatever thing is a random event while fast traveling, so it was generally inadvertently designed this way in the game. So you can just run into the guy over and over, even if you kill him. I’m sure they’ll patch it out later, but right now it’s a feature, not a bug.
I accidentally killed him because I riposte’ed him and stabbed him through the eye, haven’t seen him since yet.
Picked the stuff up (no lockpickin nor guards) just yesterday with 1.2.5 patch so no fix for this
It kind ruins the experience 
I’m sorry to hear that. Maybe chest loot are randomly generated ?
Doesn’t matter to me I already have the best armor in the game, the sword won’t make any difference.
doing this gives you a bad rep and people start to blow you off unless you pay them
