Please be aware of stolen goods especially on Ebay! Particular items include Arai rx-7 corsairs, Arai Chaser, AGV Ti-techs, AGV Airtechs, AGV Stealth, Alpinestar 1 piece suits, and Hein Gericke stock such as the Celtics.

In total probably well over £10k stock stolen last night! :shock: What really ****s me off is that my collegues and i had to spend all day clearing everything up, and doing a stock take (2nd one within a month) :evil: We're still not sure exactly what has been taken.

No serial numbers until we know exactly what it is thats been taken, they're processing the stock take results, we should find out soon what is missing.

Hmmmm inside job?

Oh that reminds me. Sam, have you got hold of that cheap Corsair yet that you "promised" me :?: :wink:

Seriously though, must have been a bit of a shock.

hey hey, bargain time!

*jumps onto ebay*

Seriously, that does suck, especially as you'll have to deal with the consequences for a while. We had a break-in where I work a while ago and got loads of pc's swiped, it took a while to clean up the mess they made too :evil:

Sorry to hear of your misfortune.

Unfortunately in this day and age those items will sell like hot cakes.
People will steal as long as there is a buyer and there are no shortage of those.

The buyers just need to think a little more, what if that was their stuff that was stolen, would they like that to happen to them etc.

I am a firm believer in what goes around comes around.

Don't get me wrong, I am always on the hunt for a bargain but a genuine one.

Sam, have they got CCTV and alarms in at your branch yet?. My friend used to work there and they didnt back then which i thought was crazy.

Unfortunatly the days of people wanting to grab kit for nowt on ebay only add fuel to the fire when it comes to stolen stock being sold.

I mean how do you know for sure the stuff your buying isnt stolen?.

HG branch in Gants Hill was raided one evening mid-week earlier in the year. Sounds as though exactly the same stuff was pinched (Celtic leathers etc). All the AlpineStar stuff etc was left behind. They arrived in a large van, forced the shop doors opened, filled up and ****ed off. Bang out of order.

By the way, I'm a medium in an airtech...

Well clean ups all done, the shop finally dried out after 4 days!! The only thing we can do is make the shop more secure just in case it happens again, if they've done it once they'll do it again.

Insurance claim is pushing £25 - 30k (including all the extra stuff for clean up etc).

Theft happens all the time there is a market for it, all we can do is try and secure the building as much as possible to give us half a chance of catching the *******s that did it.
