I have heard rumours that cash converters and others happily accept stolen goods and then "stock rotate" after storing it all in a warehouse for a decent period to let the dust settle.

For example all of the Perth stock might go to Sydney and vice versa.

The stock would be very unlikely to go in via a shopfront, rather it would be stolen by a druggie and then sold to the bikies who would meet the "black market buyer" at some discreet warehousing facility. This step would only be done by a very small "circle of trust"

Apparently if you know enough really bad people it's quite easy to get your gear back. I don't know any if these pricks (and don't want to) so my gear that got stolen is most likely long gone.

When the cops do really good busts they often find an "alladins cave" full of all sorts of stolen goods.

Jimbo,

You draw penis' on your kite? WTF Dude?

I'm with Wishy on this one . I wonder how many kiters have sold their unwanted gear to a crime conversion store ? Snap survey , anyone ? Yet , I know guys who have scored the absolute bargain board of a lifetime through one of these stores for waaaaay less than anyone with the brains to have earned the money to buy it legitimately , would part with it for.

Way to label the criminals.
