Description

Backpacks are unique upgrades that expand the number of items you can carry in your inventory beyond the initial 70. Each Backpack increases your maximum inventory by 10.

Backpack Locations

Backpacks are found with specific traders across Amalur. Their price will decrease as you take ranks in the Mercantile skill.

Illyn Doldran in Mel Senshir - 8750g.
Rikka Egest in The Corner Shop, Gorhart Village - 7500g.
Riona Helt in Asker's Alley, Ysa - Must have completed the "Old Friends, New Foes" main quest. - 7200g.
Senecer Macit in Domus Politica, Adessa - 7800g.
Wil Donall in Scholia Arcana, Rathir (Upper City) - 9375g.
Ampelio in Idylla Market, Idylla, "Teeth of Naros" DLC required - 6250g.
Calum Toomey also sells a backpack in Gravehal Keep after you restore it, but it does nothing to increase your stash size and, as such, is a waste of money. "Legend of Dead Kel" DLC required.

Notes

There is a way to obtain an unlimited amount of backpacks, by exploiting a flaw in the NPC respawn system. If Illyn Doldran is murdered and the Fateless One sleeps for 4 in-game days he will respawn and his inventory will be reset. This allows the Fateless One to buy another backpack from him.
Tip: It is possible to lower the cost of the backpack or any other large purchase from an NPC by investing in the Mercantile skill and/or using a Merchant Potion just before buying!

-* Update: The unlimited backpacks exploit does not work with [http://amalur.wikia.com/wiki/Wil_Donall Wil Donall] in [http://amalur.wikia.com/wiki/Scholia_Arcana Scholia Arcana], [http://amalur.wikia.com/wiki/Rathir Rathir ](Upper City) on Xbox 360 after most recent patch.

-* Update: Both Riona Helt and Senecer Macit did respawn after sleeping for 5 days in my own bed (apparently I lacked sleep and was unable to see them after they respawn, so make sure to get plenty of sleep)
-* Update: (PC) Another trick to speed things up, in Mel Senshir when you kill IIIyn Doldran, make sure you loot all his gold after his death, make a way to escape and sleep in 4 hours-in game(instead of 4 days), he'll respawn.(Just be careful, because sometimes he'll get stuck in the pillar behind him and you can't loot the gold! But he'll respawn after 4 days-in game, and he'll continue to get stuck in the pillar)
-* Update: (Xbox 360) The trick for PC mentioned above to speed things up also works on the Xbox 360. To prevent him being stuck in the pillar, get behind him and then kill him so that he gets thrown forward. Loot, escape and sleep 4 ingame hours and he will respawn. If you do not have a chance to loot, sleep 4 ingame hours, go back and loot followed by sleeping 4 more ingame hours to have him respawn. After the initial murder, Illyn Doldran will respawn at the location he died so stealth kill him and loot immediately as you are killing him so that you can escape much easier without running around to fast travel.
