Robbed last night

This stuff rarely turns up on eBay or gumtree. It's all going to the continent. Van loads every day.

Sympathies, as I've just had some gear lifted, albeit only blower and hedgetrimmers. 

I was just wandering tho, what are people's thoughts on the police selling proceeds of crime etc in their auctions? And what can you do if you recognise something of yours in a lot?

They don't seem to make much of an effort to find the rightful owners.

Slight tangent, but my mate advertised a motorbike on eBay. Stupidly, said to the fella who won bid 'can you come Thursday? I'm on nights Wednesday '

Got home Thursday.  Bike gone. Someone else contacted him, interested in the bike. He told them the story. Fella said, same happened to me, it's a gang from Birmingham,  here's a name. My mate took the info to the police and they filed it in the bin. ?

Thieves cut through locks etc,
Kept two angry large dogs away, moved vehicle from in front of container, cut open strong box and stole about 30 saws,hedgecutters,blowers climbing kit etc.
Huddersfield.
The police seem to be taking this quite seriously, are following several leads.
 
Looks like a cordless angle grinder was used.
 
 

That’s terrible man, there need to be such a crack down on this shit. How low do you have to be to steal a guys tools.

I’ve not much stuff but if you need anything I’m only over the hill in Todmorden. Just hit me up.

It’s a pity that some people are turning to crime , i could well imagine their ingenuity could be better used .

A big thank you to all of you who have offered kit.
Really very kind and from complete strangers.
You all know who you are.
Thank you.
