Calcelmo's Courier is a quest available in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. It is a miscellaneous quest received from a Courier in any city.
Walkthrough
After buying a dwarven item, a courier may deliver a Letter from Calcemo to the Dragonborn who is next visiting a town or a city. The letter asks to bring the item to Calcelmo; he will pay dearly for it.
Go to Understone Keep and meet Calcelmo, sell him the requested artifact for twice the item's base value. If the Dragonborn has Speech skill at the level 50 or higher, he may persuade or intimidate Calcelmo for two and a half times the item's base value.

Trivia
- In the Skyrim Game Guide, this quest is marked as World Interactions: Items of Interest.
- If Dawnguard is installed, then there is a chance that Calcelmo may request a Dwarven Crossbow, Enhanced crossbow version, as well as Dwarven Bolts if the Dragonborn sides with the Dawnguard. If a Dwarven weapon or armor piece is purchased from either Fort Dawnguard or Castle Volkihar, then it will be taken into consideration. Likewise, if Dragonborn is installed, there is a chance that he may request a Dwarven weapon or armor piece purchased on Solestheim. If the item was purchased from the Dremora Merchant through the Black Market power, then it will also be taken into consideration. For example, the Note from Calcelmo may say that the Dragonborn acquired something from Fort Dawnguard or Raven Rock. Other than that however, the note will have the exact same written content.
- If a Dwarven item is crafted, enchanted, looted, or stolen, then it will not be taken into consideration as it must be purchased from a valid merchant. However, if one is sold to a merchant and purchased back, then that may be taken into consideration.
Bugs
|
This section contains bugs related to Buy Dwarven artifact. Before adding a bug to this list, consider the following:
|
- Calcelmo may not acknowledge that an item is in the Dragonborn's inventory.
- Fix: Removing the item and getting it back again, such as dropping it and picking it up or trading it to a follower temporarily, may fix this.
- PC (Fix) If the Dragonborn has sold/lost the item, they can add it to their inventory through console commands and it may be accepted by Calcelmo.
- If a Dwarven weapon or armor piece is given to Calcelmo, then he may request another one if the Dragonborn purchases it. Similarly, the Dragonborn may be able to give Calcelmo a Dwarven item without the written note being given to them.
