break in - near Goose Green roundabout - Sun pm

[adey]

broken into yesterday late avo/evening. my wife disturbed them. police view is probably a little scrote as looked pretty amateur. not nice for my wife though.

expensive pair of headphones only apparent casualty.

out of interest, does anyone happen to know where stolen items are sold locally/in the area?...

i know it is pretty prevalent in our area and was probably only a matter of time. time to, obviously belatedly, look into security reinforecements! for what it's worth - advice to others - do it before!!

thanks

'Traditional' fencing sites -

Bicycles - Brick Lane

Jewelry & Silver - The Lanes, Brighton

Consumer Electronics - often round pubs (but old ones are stolen so that when they are replaced the thieves can come back and steal the new ones)

Increasingly also on auction and sales web sites - but only for reasonably non traceable items.

But we are talking here about professionals - if it's an amateur probably to his/ her friends - or to a (drug) dealer.

After the riots several items from Croydon found their way to Streatham Cash Converters- although it may have been via a third party because in my experience of selling in the Walworth road branch they are very hot on I.D.
