These things do seem to come in fits and starts

Sorry Steve, I think it's a continual problem. The fact that it doesn't get reported here doesn't mean it's not happening. I know of a local lad who lost all his saws a eek back, but as far as I know he isn't a member here.

I look on TreeBay, it's a Facebook page, and there are thefts mentioned all the time on that.

Nights drawing in, would imagine overnight raids going up soon 😡

[stihlmadasever]

Yeah theres a big difference between small items being taken off the back of a van spur of the moment to organised raids emptying an entire yard of its machinery.Its all too common im afraid,u see it a lot on facebook etc

There have always been thefts, the only thing that has changed is the reporting, back in the pre internet days when someone got cleaned out word found its way through the grapevine over days and weeks. Now we find out about the minutia of each event while the scrote is still running from the deed

 

Nothing has changed except the reporting

Absolutely, i meant as far as them being reported, they seem to come in waves. I remember a couple years ago there was a 2 week period where there were 2-3 reported a day, some big hits too. That was the same time I decided to go ahead with Arbsafe
