The bond amount for selling and receiving stolen goods can vary significantly based on jurisdiction, the value of the stolen items, and the defendant's criminal history. Typically, bond amounts can range from a few hundred to several thousand dollars. In more severe cases, especially if there are aggravating factors, the bond could be much higher. It's essential to consult local laws or a legal expert for specific figures relevant to a particular case.
