In Starfield there are several factions that you can join. If you choose the Crimson Fleet, you will gain the useful ability to get rid of your loot. Also stolen items and contraband.
Each faction in Starfield has its own rules and views as well as missions related to them. The Crimson Fleet is a kind of space pirates, recognizable by their red armor. One player joined them and found: A Crimson Fleet space station is perfect for selling loot.
You will also get rid of your contraband there. On the way, however, you should hide it well to avoid getting a bounty and losing the valuable goods.

“No one cares if it’s stolen.”
Why is the place good for getting rid of loot? User CrazyNatey writes in his post on Reddit on September 13, that the space station “The Key” is the best place to sell loot.
Here’s how he justifies it:
At the Key, the trade authority vendor has 11,000 credits. Directly across from him, another vendor has 12,500 credits. There are 4 other vendors nearby who have between 2,500 and 4,500 credits.
There’s a chair to wait, and they buy all items. Sure, you have to join the Crimson Fleet to gain access, but in my opinion, it’s the best place to get rid of a lot of loot.

This is what other players say: CrazyNatey’s post currently has around 3,500 upvotes and over 900 comments. One user comments: “Also, everyone buys contraband [there], and no one cares if the items you want to sell are stolen.”
Contraband nets a pile of credits in Starfield, but it’s not that easy to get rid of it. However, there are a few options.
Another user states: “Joining the Crimson Fleet is great when you’re exploring. Every time I hit pirate outposts, they say: What’s up, buddy, take what you need.” So you can not only get rid of loot at the space stations and outposts of the space pirates, but also gather items to sell them again.
You will find the space station “The Key” in the Kryx system:
Where can I find the place? The space station “The Key” is located in the Kryx system. It is in the hands of the Crimson Fleet and part of the quest line “Tower meets King.” You will receive the quest on your way to join the faction.
After a few missions and conversations, you will receive the quest to travel to the Key. You will get a quest marker, so you don’t have to search for the space station yourself.
There are different types of missions with the Crimson Fleet. Most of them involve smuggling or stealing something. If you do get a bounty, there are various ways in Starfield to get rid of it:
