merchants in the thieves guild

Yes! Here is a simple 4 step guide to doing that.

• [*]Get a job from both Vex and Delvin. If you want to do this fast, I recommend the numbers and the burgulary jobs. Also, if you get one in Riften, decline it and ask for another one. This is because the Thieve's Guild already has a " foot hold" in Riften, so doing more jobs in there is just a waste of time. [*]After doing 4 small jobs in a town, Delvin will direct you to a bigger job. These bigger jobs will have you talk to a powerful member of one of the holds and it'll start a new quest in your quest journal [*]Finish the bigger job that Delvin gave you. This will unlock a new merchant, a new thieve's guild member, and/or a new fence with more money to barter with you. [*]After you do all the big jobs Delvin gives you, talk to Tonilia inside the Thieve's Guild for one last quest.
  

And there you go. Besides the new members, shops, and new fences, you also get...

the Guild Master Armor Set and a cool amulet that makes persuasion checks work almost everytime. You also get a safe that you can raid for some free loot every once in awhile
