So you can steal them all, preview a house and exit back to the shop, steal more, preview the house again, steal more, etc. She walks between two different spots behind the counter, and through experience you can figure out which spot is best for being able to steal the soul gems in the crate (when she's toward the left) or the soul gems on the countertop (when she’s on the right but you have to crouch behind her so she hopefully doesn't see you).Īfter you steal the soul gems, you can fast travel to one of the player housing properties that you don't own yet, to preview it, and when you exit that property you'll end up in the Enchanting shop again, usually with a fresh batch of soul gems to steal. If you wait until she gets up from her chair and walks over to the counter, you can usually steal the soul gems without being seen by crouching behind her until you're hidden.


Those 3 to 5 in the Enchanting shop are probably your best bet, and the NPC won't attack you if she sees you stealing them, she'll just give you a bounty. I think the OP wants to farm them without too much effort.
