Cannibals and miners don't like me

Kinda slow day, mostly just cleared up a couple side quests. One quest was getting into a cannibal cult, but it only got me a useless ring (who would want to eat a bandit or a wildman?). The other quest was to clear out a mine that was taken over by outlaws. It was rather easy and outside the mine was a smelter to convert all the gold ore I found into easier to carry bars. Then when I get back I find that an NPC there boght gold ore at full value, not the 45% i get for the bars...
