In *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*, stealing can seem like a quick way to gather items and money for your journey. However, there are significant downsides to this approach. Stolen items can be challenging to sell, and the risk of arrest is always looming. Here’s a detailed guide on how to sell stolen items in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*.
Selling Stolen Items in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2
The most straightforward 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. During this time, the 'stolen' mark next to the item will disappear, allowing you to sell it to any trader NPC without issues.
When you acquire items through lockpicking or pickpocketing, they will be marked as stolen in your inventory. Most traders will refuse to purchase these marked items. Furthermore, if you're stopped by a guard who searches your inventory, you risk arrest unless you can bribe them to look the other way.
To circumvent these challenges, it's advisable to store your stolen goods in a chest and wait out the required time. Once the stolen status is removed, you can sell them freely as if they were legally obtained.
Additionally, you can unlock certain perks to expedite the process. The Hustler and Partner in Crime perks in the Speech category will enable you to sell stolen items immediately, making these perks highly beneficial to acquire early in your gameplay.
Another option is to sell stolen items to a fence. Early in the game, you can find a fence at the Nomads’ Camp, providing a quick solution for offloading stolen goods.
How Long Until You Can Sell Stolen Items
The duration required for a stolen item to lose its 'stolen' status varies based on the item's value. More expensive items take longer to be forgotten, so plan your strategy accordingly.
