When my house was broken into the police told me that stolen posessions are typically sold within 30 minutes to 1 hour after being stolen. So I think it's highly unlikely that it's the original thief. I've had folks offer to sell me what were quite likely stolen goods on the street before. Probably what happened here. At this point, however, it's wise to consider the guy who DID buy it a thief... and he is. If he's willing to provide you with a backup, take it and try your damnedest to track as much of it as you can (I'd involve law enforcement).
