How to Sell Stolen Items in Kingdom Come Deliverance 2

While pilfering provides a tempting shortcut to riches in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, remember that ill-gotten gains come with consequences. Selling stolen goods isn't as simple as walking into any shop; most merchants will refuse your wares. Arrest is a very real possibility if caught with stolen items. So, how do you turn your loot into gold?

Selling Stolen Items in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2

The most straightforward method is to utilize your inventory chest. Store your pilfered goods, wait a week or two in-game, and the "stolen" tag will vanish. After this waiting period, you can sell the items to any merchant NPC without fear of reprisal.

The "stolen" marker appears on items acquired through lockpicking or pickpocketing. This marker flags the items as illicit, causing most traders to reject them. Furthermore, a guard's inventory check will lead to arrest unless you can bribe your way out of trouble.

Storing items in your chest and patiently waiting is the safest approach. Over time, the stolen status fades, allowing for normal sale transactions.

Alternatively, consider unlocking perks to expedite the process. The "Hustler" and "Partner in Crime" perks (found under the Speech skill tree) enable the sale of stolen goods without penalty. Prioritizing these perks early in the game is a worthwhile investment.

Finally, fences offer an alternative sales channel. Early in the game, you can find a fence in the Nomads' Camp.

How Long Until You Can Sell Stolen Items?

The time required for the "stolen" tag to disappear varies depending on the item's value. More expensive items take longer to become untraceable. Plan accordingly, and be prepared to wait.
