In The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered, you can steal a lot of valuable items from NPCs, but you just can't sell them to any normal vendor. If you want to sell stolen stuff, you would have to deal with certain NPCs called fences, who are usually tied to the Thieves Guild.
Here’s a quick rundown on how to fence your stolen items.
Join the Thieves Guild
Start by checking out one of those wanted posters plastered all over the Imperial City. Then, track down a beggar and get on their good side by chatting them up or tossing some coins their way. Ask about the Gray Fox, and they’ll spill the beans about the Thieves Guild. Say you’re interested, and they’ll point you to the Garden of Dareloth in the Waterfront District, even marking it on your map.
Locate a Fence
Fences are the only folks who’ll buy your stolen goods. You’ll run into:
Ongar the World-Weary (Bruma)
- Location: Ongar’s place in Bruma, usually there at night (like 8 PM to 6 AM).
- Details: Ready to deal after you join the Thieves Guild. He’s got 600 gold to spend.
- How to Find: His house is in Bruma’s southwest corner, near the Great Hall. Check your local map for “Ongar’s House.”
