There are two crimes - possibly three. (1) the theft (2) transporting the property across state lines (3) knowingly disposing of stolen property (Fencing). The state that the theft occurred in could prosecute you for that. The state that the items were sold in could prosecute you for that. If the item concerned qualifies under federal law, the feds could prosecute you for taking it across state lines.
