Possible stolen gear being sold on craigslist

Recommended Posts

I'm thinking that perhaps this could become a sticky thread in this forum.

 

If you are searching craigslist or ebay (local PNW listings) and see someone trying to sell climbing/outdoor gear that seems suspicious to you, post it here with a short description and maybe the owner will recognize their stuff and be able to contact/maim/prosecute the thief and recover their gear.

There's no way of knowing where he got the stuff.

 

Easy to assume it's stolen.

 

I think we're all angry and paranoid about meth-heads ripping off stuff, but not every person selling gear they're unfamiliar with is a thief.

 

Having said that, "ice shoes???" It sure seems suspicious.

 

Someone should send Big Lou down there to S Seattle....

Maps? That's a strange one. That's the most suspicious part to me.

I kinda want to meet this deusch! He's from south seattle too - definitely stolen gear.

 

Could you explain the correlation between S Seattle and why it's definitely stolen gear?

 

Sorry to offend, In my experience with that area, I've run into alot of sketch balls. Same with anywhere though.

...can't one of ya'll seattle types call the cops and have them investigate it?

 

hahahahaa

 

Yeah.

 

Remember that scene in Big Lebowski when The Dude asks the cop in the car impound lot if the detectives were going to dust for prints?

"i wouldn't hold out much hope for the creedence" :)
