I think I might have stumbled across a bug involving the so-called "Larceny Targets" for the Thieves Guild - the special items that you can find during some of the missions that can be given to Devlin for a reward. I've given him several already without issue, but had managed to accumulate 3 now without remembering to turn them in. I've gone to him to try and hand them in and he doesn't have the option any more. I suspect it's a standard Beth incorrect queststage bug, but without a CS it's pretty much impossible to troubleshoot.

Can anyone else confirm this one as a bug?

Not only Devlin is intrested in those.

I'm having the same issue.
A helpful response would be who the other person that is interested in them is.

Further testing seems to indicate that it is the East Empire Trading Map specifically that triggers this problem.

Niot for me. I got the dwemer cube, and quest prompt to return it to Devlin, but when I speak to him there's no dialogue choice to suit. Then I got the eyes of the flamer, and a quest to take those to Devlin too. But now he won't even talk to me, he just does that "You'starting to cause quite a stir. In fact I have a special job..." speech, but no actual dialogue. Anyone know if I can fix this before the ck comes out? Cheers!

I know there is an order of which you sell the items to him. Mix up the order and I think that's where the glitch starts. I don't know to to undo this.

My biggest glitch I've found, well I wrote a long complaint see "No Stone Unturned" to read all about it. A Thieves' Guild side quest.

Found this info on http://www.uesp.net/..._Guild_(faction)#Delvin.27s_Quests


PC, PS3, Xbox 360) When picking up the last Larceny item, the quest goes to stage 200 (completion) rather than the one regarding the item. To avoid this you need to manually use setstage TGLarceny 80 (tested for Falmer's Eye as the final item)(stage 40 to start 'Return the East Empire Trading Map to Delvin') and additem the object instead of picking it up. Then, after handing it in, setstage TGLarceny 200. There is currently no solution for consoles.

The above link doesn't load... ?

Perhaps the special hold quest has locked up the rest of his options? Try completing (or at least accepting) his special job first and see if the options come back. I noticed he does the same thing to me with all dialogue options including the normal thief jobs until I accept it.

I can't get him to actually talk to me though. His dialogue menu doesn't appear: he just does that one spiel whenever I hit 'E' and then it finishes, with no option to talk. So I can't accept any jobs, turn in anything. I've tried waiting 24 hours, coming back a few days later, and making other quests active. I also went and got the grey fox bust. Now I have a quest item to take all these three objects back but he won't even talk.

I've also tried removing all the items with the console, but that doesn't change the quest status.

It's really annoying, because this char is a thief, and without these quests I can't advance in that guild, so it's pretty much broken the thieves guild. Vex won't give me any quests. She says "Maybe you should finish that special job for Delvin first"

Does anyone else find this quest (the larceny one) to be weirdly set up? It is set up as if the objects would always be picked up in a predetermined order, yet this being an open world game, that is unlikely. So it's as if an inexperienced designer created this quest. No disrespect meant to BGS, but the logic of the quest seems fundamentally flawed, and likely to be so for most players.

But I guess I can wait for January for the thieves guild. I still have lots to do for the Dark Brotherhood anyway!

I had no trouble giving Delvin most of the items, then when it came to the Eye of the Falmer I received no dialogue option allowing me to trade it in. Oh I tried everything to get fixed, but sadly nothing worked. I finally gave up and just stuck em in a chest at my house in Markarth.

Bugga. I might just have to start a new character. Try it again. Would like to hear from anyone who has finished every quest of the Theives Guild. Not from pc (no hard feelings) besause you can mod it.

I am experiencing this as well, and the best part is that I now can't buy the upgraded rooms for the DB sanctuary in Dawnstar. I have the "Eyes of the Falmer" and "model ship" to turn in to Delvin. Hopefully the next update will fix this. VERY FRUSTRATING BETHESDA!!!

Yea he wont take my eye of the falmer...that snide bastard is too good for my ancient crystal

Bugs with that guild prevented me from joining it with my current characters. I'm also angry that the jeweled pitcher doesn't unlock at 75 side jobs completed.

This may sound silly; but do you have a quest already open for Devlin? like a pickpocket, or other radiant one? Maybe you have to complete that first before he will accept anything? (I was bad and forgot to collect more than few of the larceny targets so I don't have any help there).
