Alittle help please?

So first a story then questions. :whisper:

I am making a cheat mod because I got in the mood all of a sudden, been working on it for a bit now and it's getting quite fun(for me at least) and I decided to make some of the cheat items worth more. I had decided that they would only be worth like 5 gold when I started but I guess my natural greed has finally asserted itself and now when I sell one of these super items I want to get more $$.

So I went and changed the value of some of the items to more gold. Then I went into the game and gave a merchant 300,000 gold with the console, opening the console clicking on the npc and typing additem f 300000 and pressing enter. Then I proceeded to sell some of my cheat items as a test to said merchant. It would say I'd get (let's say for examples sake) 20,000 gold. I'd pick the item and it would take it no error saying not enough gold, then it would not loose any of the money it had and also I didn't get any money, but it would make the sounds and not give any errors as if everything went as normal.

So we've had story time now it's time for the question. Why is it that even though the merchant now has the gold that the game is not taking from it and not giving it to me? Now this also happens if I use a regular item so I have effectively broken the merchants I did this too. I have a backup save no problem there. I even reverted and edited the master trader perk in the speech tree so instead of upping gold by 1000 it upped it by 30,000 just to try and it still seems to not want to work. Why does the game seem to not like high number transactions? :confused: :down:

I do not know why but I do not know how this is a spoiler.

No it's not, it's about a cheat. So I decided to put it here.
