selling traps

I have recently installed the HoTu expansion to my Neverwinternights gold. I went back to the original campaign and it seems like I can't sell the traps I find.

Are there certain people i need to speak to to sell these traps, because this will take away a valuble source of income for my rougue.

Traps have for some reason been labled as "Stolen Goods" - as you have no doubt seen for yourself now.

This means that only a select few merchants (more shady merchants) will accept traps.
The only one I can remember with accuracy is the "shady" merchant in chapter 2, near the docks area of the starting city.

Personally though - traps aren't a great source of income compared to the weight and space they take up. I don't know if prices on them have dropped in recent patchs, but the ones I tried to sell was not worth the effort.

I see little to no reason to haul many traps around (unless your rogue actually uses them), especially if you only do it for gold.

I just think that there just isn't as much fun in simply disabling the traps I find. I enjoy being able to recover just about every trap I find. It is true that the minor traps aren't worth a whole lot, but with a good appraise and some of the stronger traps, I've gotten as much as 200GP for one trap.

oops, that was supposed to be 2000GP.

Also, is there any way to change it so that I can sell the traps I recover?

Only by altering the traps in the toolset to not act as stolen. Not something I'd recommend unless you know what you are doing and is 100% sure.
