Join the Thieves Guild First
Before you can clean any stolen item in The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, you need to be part of the Thieves Guild. This is essential because only guild fences will buy stolen goods. If you're not a member yet, search for a starter quest related to the Gray Fox or check in-game tips for recruitment.
Once you're in, fences like Ongar the World-Weary become available to you. He's your go-to guy for this trick.
Find Ongar in Bruma
Ongar is usually found in Bruma, either inside his house or hanging around the local inn. Check your map and head over to Bruma. If he’s not in one place, he’ll likely be in the other.
Ongar buys stolen items as part of his role in the guild, which is exactly what makes this trick work.
Sell Your Stolen Item to Ongar
Approach Ongar and start a barter. Find your stolen item—this could be anything from a petty soul gem to a stolen weapon or armor. Sell it to him as you would with any item.
You can haggle for a better price if you like, but the main goal is to simply get the item into his inventory.
Buy the Same Item Back Immediately
After selling, back out of the conversation, then talk to Ongar again and check his inventory. The stolen tag is now removed.
Purchase the same item back—yes, you’ll pay some gold, but the item is now clean and legally yours. You can use, sell, or equip it without any risk of it being confiscated by guards.
Repeat as Needed
You can repeat this trick with as many items as you want, as long as you have the gold and access to a fence. It's especially useful for valuable gear you want to keep or use without alerting law enforcement in-game.
Why This Trick Matters
If you get caught by guards while carrying stolen gear, they’ll take it away. Most of the time, you can’t get it back. Using this method ensures that you keep valuable items and avoid any trouble.

It's a smart way to avoid losing valuable gear to guards, especially if you've stolen high-value items. Just make sure you have a bit of extra gold for the buyback—and you're all set to keep playing without restrictions.
