How to Sell Stolen Items in Kingdom Come Deliverance 2

In Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, pilfering goods offers a tempting shortcut to wealth, but carries significant risks. Selling stolen items directly is problematic; most merchants refuse such transactions, and possession of stolen goods can lead to arrest. Here's how to navigate this tricky situation.

Selling Stolen Goods:

The simplest method involves storing stolen items in your inventory chest. After approximately one to two in-game weeks, the "stolen" marker will vanish, allowing you to sell the items to any merchant NPC without issue.

The stolen status is clearly marked on items acquired through lockpicking or pickpocketing. Guards will arrest you if they find stolen goods during a search, unless you can bribe your way out of trouble.

Storing and waiting eliminates these risks. The longer an item is stored, the less likely it is to be traced. However, the value of the item influences the waiting period; more expensive items take longer to clear.

Speeding Up the Process:

Investing in the "Hustler" and "Partner in Crime" perks under the Speech skill tree allows for immediate sale of stolen goods, bypassing the waiting period entirely. Prioritizing these perks is highly recommended.

Alternative Approach: Fences

Early in the game, a fence can be found in the Nomads' Camp, providing an alternative outlet for stolen goods.

How Long to Wait:

The time required for the "stolen" marker to disappear varies with the item's value. More valuable items necessitate a longer waiting period.
