It does backfire sometimes - like the little "Insert word of choice here" who decided to pinch my Dads' bike in Bristol. Thing is, his was a cheap Halfords one. It was chained to Mums' bike, which was a rather expensive Giant when new. They pinched a £90 bike and left a £300 one...

Someone nicked 5 RRC wheels out of our back garden the day after I had sold them on ebay! The dogs barked a few times but I assumed that it was a cat or fox at the time - silly me!  :roll:

its unbelieveable round here, they have left all the 10 wheels round the side of the house alone but they stole the end of the garden tap, on a plus side it did leak

why?

We once had some wally steal a single wheeltrim from our old Citroen XM. Yep, one wheeltrim. Wouldn't suit anything else (pretty distinctive design). Cost us £50 to replace (back when XMs were still being made and ebay hadn't been invented)

I may be a suspicious guy but the fact that your address is sent to the winner of the eBay auction and they then know where to find just what they need and at 3 in the morning they can get it cheaper than paying the price they won it for.
Not sure what the answer is but it is not a good idea to keep the items you have sold at the address you publish.

Do you think that that is why they only nicked one - thats all they needed for their XM?

Had some wheels nicked recntly from our unit and it's not as if you can see it from the road either.  With Christmas coming it's easier than getting a proper job :roll:

I doubt it - XMs were never exactly common hereabouts (think ours was the only one in town at the time). More likely it was the dodgy types down the road taking offence to someone having a newer car than theirs. We moved to the other end of town shortly after - things don't go walkies at this end!

Any news on this? Did you take the video to the police and have they got him?

I given the lad some credit though. Carrying a r/r wheel on a bike is something I dont think I could do!

I once arrested a guy after he broke into the local council dump and nicked a broken television.
His reply after caution was "I can't belive you're nicking me for that". I replied "I can't believe you nicked a busted television"
He admitted on interview that he was going to clean it up and sell it a car boot sale for £20.
He got done for going equipped to cheat as well. :twisted:
