Unlimited Caps from Lonesome Road

Still Mildly Glowing
I noticed that if you sell enough loot to reduce the commisary's caps to 0, then exit and re-enter; the commisary will have 6000 more caps right away. So here's what you do: find a set of US Army Combat Armor or Riot Armor with a low condition (20-30%) and sell it to the commisary. Since the Commisary will already have one in stock, you can do the money glitch where you buy and sell the same item over and over. Then when the commisary is out of caps, just exit, and re-enter for 6000 more caps.

If you are not familiar with this money glitch, you just need a vendor with 2 of the same item, with one of the item's condition very low (sawed-off shotguns at mick & ralph's is the best example); after you buy and sell the low-condition item a few times it will appear in your inventory as fully-repaired -- so you can sell it for a lot more money than what you paid for it. The best part is, after you sell it back, it appears back in the vendor's inventory as un-repaired -- so you can repeat the process until the vendor is out of caps.

All other vendors will be out of caps until they re-stock their inventory (every wednesday and sunday), but the commisary in LR has an endless supply of caps, plus it can repair your equipment to 100% condition. With this trick, I was able to repair all my items (48,000 caps), buy all the new weapon upgrades (92,000 caps), and still walk away with over 150,000 caps!
 
If you're going to do this you might as well just use console commands (assuming you're on PC of course).

Thats the point. I'm not playing the PC version, so I can't mod the game to do whatever I want. I'm playing on PS3, and I posted this for people playing on PS3 or Xbox 360.

Doesn't reset for me, weird.
Has to be at 0 caps, then exit out and re-enter.

However, I have only tested this on PS3, and assumed it would work the same way for all versions. What version are you playing? And when the commisary drops to 0 caps, does it stay out of caps until it restocks its inventory?

edit: when i first noticed it, i had to go into the repair menu (didn't have to repair anything) then go back to the buy/sell menu. Then later, i noticed i didn't have to do that anymore. Maybe you have to do that first, to trigger the glitch.
 
It might just be like that to offset the fact that the weapon mods for LR weaps cost upwards of 10 thousand caps each (with mid-to-low barter skill).

The glitch isn't, obviously, but yeah, the Commissary cycles through cash quick because the items it sells are so expensive. There's no need to exploit a glitch though, if you have decent barter all you need to do is stock yourself and ED-E full of marked men weaponry and make a few trips back and forth.

If you want to use an exploit in a single-player game that's your bidnis tho.
 
Go to the vikki&Vancouver casino in primm,buy chips but when you cash them in you get caps you also keep your chips so you can keep cashing them in.
