Fallout 3 Hints
Repair Guy List
NOTE: After someone does repairs for you, the money you paid him will usually be in his inventory, which makes it possible to pickpocket it back. It's best to do so immediately after each repair to keep the amounts smaller and easier to pickpocket. If the person is also a merchant, the repair money will be added to his store money (though it's still usually pickpocketable).
