I agree, needs as much publicity as possible.

Seems to be mainly Leica gear but a lot of it.

No doubt bit by bit it will find it's way onto eBay, but with all those serial numbers that could be risky.

Know the company as I have purchased from them in the past.
All Leica kit. I guess stolen to order.
Hope they recover the stolen items.

More info about the raid...

They were obviously well prepared.

It seems nothing is safe. If these crooks devoted their skills and knowledge to legitimate endeavours they would probably be well off and well respected. Instead of which there is a good chance they will be spending much time at one of Her Majesties establishments for bad boys.

Brick and Mortar stores are becoming Fewer and further in between, I cannot express my feelings about this , but Medieval thoughts and a fond image of a certain Dr. Guilotin come to mind....a certain American game could come into play as well... :letsplay:
