Secondhand dealers including jewelry buyers, electronics resellers, and consignment shops must register with OKCPD, capture seller ID information, and report purchases through the LeadsOnline system within 24 hours of each transaction.
OKC Code Chapter 18 defines secondhand dealers broadly to include any business buying used goods from the public for resale. Registration with OKCPD's secondhand desk is required, plus annual city business license. Each transaction needs photo ID, address, item description, and serial numbers, uploaded to LeadsOnline within 24 hours. Items deemed potentially stolen require a 10-day police hold. Antique dealers selling pre-1900 items, garage sales under three per year, and charity thrift stores are exempt from the registration requirement.
Skipping reporting, accepting stolen goods, or failing to honor police holds triggers misdemeanor charges, license suspension, and forfeiture of inventory.
