I've heard about three kite gear thefts around melbourne over the last wk. One house burglary, one car stolen with gear when keys were left in a bag on the beach at Altona, and one kite shop trailer full of gear.

Be vigilant guys and post on here if a second hand gear deal seems too good to be true.

I bought some kites last week for $100....

Thanks Naish.... (deal seemed too good to be true)...

I think there is still some left?

just sent my email to them - waiting for a reply thank you polykarb for posting the sales cheers

got red thumbed, for sharing details of sale with I bit of humour, to most I thought it would have been obvious not dodgE..

I've had a car broken into before back in NZ, lucky not full of kites, but it still sucked ...

I also had a Kiteboard stolen and sold to cash converters for $100 , my advice is to put your details under foot pad, it doesn't wear off and if you ever have to dispute ownership it makes it easy.

I think leaving your kite bag on the beach is asking for trouble. Get a magnetic key box from SuperCheap auto, find a good hiding spot, put keys in it, hide and ride!!
