Well this is not new I hate to say. On a LOT smaller item. (Value) I brought Tubes in there boxes, of ICE-GEL. Super glue from BSI. To a past meeting. I was only selling them for $10 bucks. I counted several times the number I was coming with to the meeting. I did sell some but with my paranoia I have I tried to keep an eye on the box, with the boxes. When I was closer to the tank in the front, I say a gentleman take one and head out the garage instantly. I didn't know who it was as it was soooo fast. I went to look but he was gone. (meeting was ending)
My point is the world has changed and will never be the same. I am a Real Estate Broker. I have to insist that my clients remove any cash, jewelry and guns that are not physically attached to them. Oh and meds to.
Check the pawn shops and drop off pictures to them AFTER you check them out real good
