Let's say some pawnbroker is "flexible" about the provenance of goods. How do thieves benefit from being forbidden from selling to him?

Ideally, in a free society, laws are upheld by police enforcement. Thieves would therefore be unable to sell their products to a pawnshop, and the pawnshop would be unable to fence these products.

Of course, a society might fail with that goal but that doesn't make the goal invalid or non-existent.
