In the College of Winterhold's living quarters, you can find a black market merchant named Enthir - he'll sell you Black Soul Gems for something like 1200 or 1300 septims.
Ian PugsleyIan PugsleyYou can also find them in Geode Clusters in Blackreach. It isn't a merchant, but it is mineable. Note that you'll also get other things: corundum, normal soul gems, and occasionally gems.

thegrinnerYour best chance is to find necromancers and taking it off of their corpses. I don't think there are any stores that sells them.
l Il II've also found several Black Soul Gems off of Giants. But unless you're able to snipe them then that can be a hassle.
I also heard somewhere that the dungeons rest every 40 game days or something like that. (Not exactly sure, and haven't really been paying attention to the date in the game) If so then Illinata's Deep, the old ruin thing by the Lady Stone would be an excellent place to collect them. When I went through it for the quest, I found at least 3 since it's crawling with Necromancers.
I also find them off of vampires usually, but be sure to bring lots of Cure Disease potions if you don't want to turn into one.
Go to the college of winterhold and speak to enthir. He will have two deadra hearts and one black soul gem. After you buy what you want you need to save and then kill or hurt him. After you do that you need to load that save and he will then have two more deadra hearts and another black soul gem. Repeat this process as many times as you want.
Skyrim How To Charge Soul Gems
You Find Black Soul Gems in College of Winterhold, but mostly random in dungeons, they're more common as you level, but they're still more 'rare' than most regular Soul Gems
Buy one from Enthir in the hall of Attainment, wait two days, and repeat process. Also, you can find them on any type of HOSTILE mages, in warlock dungeons, vampire caves, Thalmor Justiciar groups might have them, and hagraven nests.
Go to the college of winterhold. Once you enter the courtyard there is a door on your left called 'Hall of Attainment' go inside. Travel directly across the room to the stairwell and go up the stairs to the next level. Once you on the next floor go into the first room on the left. This is Enthir's room. He sells and buys stolen goods. He has an empty black soul gem. Once you have purchased it you can exit out to the courtyard, then wait 48 hrs and you can go up to his room again and he will have another one that you can buy. Just repeat the process until you have as many as you need. Also remember to bring a pickaxe with you when you go on the mission in BlackReach. In there you have a lot of mining to do and you will get a ton of soul gems of every kind.
There is one selling at Morthal, if I'm not mistaken Falion is his name, he's in the house nearest to the dock.
So far the best place I've found is the guy in The Colledge of Winterhold, but you have to join the Thieve Guild (I think) first. Other then that, as you lvl up, you'll start finding them more and more through raiding the dougens (forgive the spelling please) But I'm' still trying to figure it out how to acquire a lot of them, I remember back in Oblivion, there was a a casket or whatever you would place Grand Soul gems and after one night pass, they'll turn black. But just keep raiding doungens and lairs, you'll come across them. Also, htere's a quest, Azura's Shrine, two ways to complete that, one way: be the rightguess player and have it turn tnto a reuseable Grand Soul Gem, or be like me and keep it a Black reusable Soul Gem. I think you have to be a level 5(five) to get this quest and that's by asking about rumors in the Inns or pubs.

Soul gems are an essential component to successfully imbuing magical properties to an item or weapon in a process called Enchanting. The quality of the soul gem affects the potency of the resulting enchantment. Filled soul gems can be found throughout the world, but can also be created through the spellSoul Trap. Another way to easily fill soul gems is by getting the ConjurationskillSoul Stealer, which automatically makes bound weapons cast Soul Trap.
Capturing Souls
[edit]
Filling Soul Gems necessitates the use of the spellSoul Trap or its similar enchantments on items and weapons. With the spell, you need to cast it on the non-humanoid target before its death so that its soul can be plucked and transferred into the smallest available Soul Gem in your inventory. The quality of the Soul Gem depends on the creature's level.
