Stealing can seem like an easy way to gather items and money during your journey in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, but it comes with its challenges. Selling stolen goods can be tricky, and there's always the risk of getting caught and arrested. Here's a comprehensive guide on how to successfully sell stolen items in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2.
Selling Stolen Items in Kingdom Come Deliverance 2
The simplest method to sell stolen items in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 involves storing them in an inventory chest and waiting for about one to two in-game weeks. This waiting period allows the "stolen" mark on the item to disappear, enabling you to sell it to any trader NPC without issues.
When you steal items through lockpicking chests or pickpocketing, they will be marked as stolen in your inventory. Most traders will refuse to buy these marked items. Moreover, if a guard stops you and searches your inventory, you risk being arrested for possessing stolen goods unless you can bribe them.
To circumvent these problems, the best strategy is to store the stolen items in a chest and wait before attempting to sell them. Over time, as the memory of the theft fades, the items will become sellable again.
Additionally, you can unlock certain perks to make selling stolen items easier. The Hustler and Partner in Crime perks, found under the Speech category, allow you to sell stolen items without any issues. It's advisable to prioritize unlocking these perks early in your gameplay.
Another option is to sell your stolen goods to a fence. Early in the game, you can find a fence at the Nomads' Camp.
How Long Until You Can Sell Stolen Items
The duration required for a stolen item to lose its "stolen" status varies depending on the item's value. Generally, more valuable items take longer to become sellable, so plan your strategy accordingly.
