Stupid fence

Lyserus · January 2017

Now u all know that when u sell your dirty goods u usually have white ones green ones and blue ones. And a window will always pop up when you sell blue stuff, saying that you will not be able to buy back the expensive goods. Now:
1.Are there any other uses of blue stuff except you get more money from selling it? NO
2.Is there even a window that we can click and buy back the normal stolen goods? guess what

I felt at first you couldn't buy back items or maybe it is/ was just a console bug (asking)

It depends on what the blue (or purple - it's the same warning for purple stuff) stuff is. If the blue stuff is just something like this:

then there's no use for it other than getting gold for selling it. If, on the other hand, it's something like this:

then there's definitely a use for it aside from selling it for gold. You wouldn't want to accidentally sell a stolen blue or purple recipe or weapon or piece of armour and not be able to get it back would you?

There is not. The warning is there if you start to accidentally fence a stolen blue or purple item you can use for something else. You can't buy back stuff you sold to the fence (so far as I know, (they have no buyback interface, anyway)), so if it's a recipe or motif book, accidentally selling it could be very unpleasant.

Is there a place to buy back from fences? I could have sworn sales to fences are final. As you can see on the UI there is no "Buyback tab"

You can't buy back fenced items ... period.

That's why the special message pops up for blue and higher quality items when you go to fence them.

Of course, you can still buy back any recently sold items at a (non-fence) merchant.

The warning annoys me because I usually have a bunch of blue stolen treasures to unload..if they must keep the prompt then let me say yes to all. Also there should be a sell all stolen goods option.
