Starfield Removing Stolen Tag from Items

Ah, Starfield, the vast cosmos where you can be whoever you want to be. Whether you’re a virtuous hero saving the galaxy or a mischievous mastermind with a penchant for thievery, the choice is yours. Just remember, if you’re going to be a criminal mastermind, the key is to not get caught. And a little bit of “hide and seek” with the evidence can go a long way.
So, you’ve accumulated a treasure trove of stolen goodies, but now you’re wondering what to do with them. Selling stolen items can be a tricky business, as not every vendor is willing to turn a blind eye to your illicit acquisitions. But fear not, my fellow space pirates, for I have the ultimate guide to selling your stolen wares in Starfield.
How to Get Stolen Items
In Starfield, stealing is an art form. It’s not just about swiping items willy-nilly; it requires finesse and stealth. You can either sneak into stores and snatch merchandise like a midnight ninja or pickpocket unsuspecting citizens of the Settled Systems. The thrill of the heist is exhilarating, but beware! If you’re caught in the act, your ill-gotten gains will be confiscated, and a hefty bounty will be placed on your head. Play it smart and ensure you remain undetected, and you’ll find yourself with a trove of precious loot to sell.
Where to Store Stolen Items
So, you’ve successfully avoided security forces and escaped with your stolen loot, but what now? If you’re not able to sell the items right away or simply want to hold onto them for a rainy day, there are a few clever ways to store your ill-gotten gains.
One option is to trade gear with a loyal follower. They become not just a companion on your adventures but also your personal stash holder. They’ll keep your stolen items safe and sound, ready for you to retrieve when the time is right.

Alternatively, you can stash your loot in containers on your ship or at various outposts. It’s like having your very own hidden treasure chest in the vastness of space. Just be sure to remember where you stashed everything, or you might end up playing a cosmic game of hide-and-seek with your own stolen goods.
Where to Sell Stolen Items
Ah, the age-old question of where to unload your ill-gotten gains. Most vendors will refuse to touch your stolen loot, but fear not, my fellow scoundrels, for there is one business that thrives on discretion: The Trade Authority.

Spread throughout the Settled Systems, The Trade Authority is the go-to place for all your black market needs. They’re like the shady uncle who always has a plan for your stolen goods. One of the earliest vendors you’ll encounter is Zoe Kaminski, stationed in The Well. She’s more than happy to take that hot merchandise off your hands and exchange it for some credits in your pocket.
How to Launder Stolen Items
But what if you fancy keeping some of those stolen treasures for yourself? Maybe you’ve stumbled upon a rare artifact or a snazzy blaster that you simply can’t part with. Well, my friend, you’re in luck. The Trade Authority can help you with that too.
First, sell the item to the vendor from the Sell menu, just like any other transaction. But here’s where the real magic happens. Head on over to the Buy menu and select the Buy Back option. Like a cosmic money laundering operation, you can repurchase your ill-gotten items without the stolen tag. Voila! They’re now legally yours, and security won’t bat an eye. Well, except for that Trade Authority employee who knows your little secret.
And there you have it, fellow space scoundrels, the insider’s guide to thriving in the criminal underworld of Starfield. Now go forth, blend in with the shadows, and enjoy the sweet taste of victory as you sell your stolen treasures. Happy gaming, my interstellar comrades!
