This Black Market Thief is one of two in the game (the other is in the Athkatla Docks). He is a halfling, tucked away on the roof of the Copper Coronet, and therefore, easy to miss. You'll have to "get past" a few hostile muggers to get to him the first time. Contrary to what his name suggests, he is not a fence, but happy to sell you his own skillfully obtained wares.

He's available in the evenings and through the night from 19:30 till 05:30.

Aye now... would ye be a mite interested in buyin' a few wares at th' barest prices in Athkatla?

— Black Market Thief

While his store is named "Black Market Thief", he doesn't actually fence stolen goods.

The Rogue Rebalancing mod adds a few different Mod-only rogue-centric items to the shop inventory. The mod also makes this merchant a "fence", as that is basically what a black-market thief should be able to do.
