Day 3

Wow, now my confidence is really up. I went out early today and found a large motorcycle shop near home. I only went in with the intention of having a look at the bikes but of course I ended up stealing something, and what a something that was!

Today I managed to walk out with a beautiful Shoei full-faced helmet.

Oh yeah!

The idiots behind the counter had no idea what I was there for. Once again they were too engrossed in themselves to care what the customers were up to. You can definitely tell when the store is run by the owner; the owner wouldn't allow it to happen. I just walked out holding it in front of me. With staff like that I probably could have worn it out without being noticed

I might go back next Sunday and try for a motorbike, it's probably doable.

Shoei Helmet = $350









STOLEN TOTAL = $2,103
EBAY TOTAL = $0

Day 2

Had another great day today. I headed out around 12pm as I thought this would be the busiest period of the day, also it's more likely the security would be short-staffed due to breaks.

I went back to a different shopping center today, I didn't want to push my luck after yesterdays incident. The first store I hit was the same major chain I did yesterday. I managed to score the same Sony Handicam flash as yesterday and a nice Kodak Easyhot camera. These seem to get close to the tag price on eBay so I should do well with them.

I then walked into a sports store and saw a nice hat. Instead of just taking one I took 8 of them in one go, ha ha.

The next victim was a wilderness store where I walked out with a Zippo lighter, a Victornox Swiss Army knife and a nice mens travel set. I might keep that, it should come in handy for my next trip.

Finally I walked into an art & craft store, the staff there were too busy chatting to each other to notice me clearing their shelves. From there I boosted a box of nice Pentel textas and a very nice Snap-On airbrush in it's case. I didn't even bag that, just walked out with it in my hand.

Another excellent day for me! So far the items I've listed have been bid on up to $190, that's only for yesterdays booty. I'll start posting a running total on all my eBay sales when the auctions start ending. Ive found running a 3 day auction results in the same prices as a 10 day auction so am keeping them short.

Here is a photo of todays earnings.


Victorinox Knife = $40
Zippo Lighter = $30
Pentel Pens = $36
Hats = $140
Sony Mic = $230
Kodak Camera = $140
Mens Travel Set = $38
Snap-On Airbrush = $299

Total = $953

Woo hoo!


STOLEN TOTAL = $1,753

EBAY TOTAL = $0
