Agreed. You would either want the bikes for yourself or you have a fence in mind for a better price. The going rate for a stolen bike seems to be between $40 and $100 - seems to correlate strongly with the price of various drugs. If I have to work hard to steal a bike which is going to fetch me the same value as one I have to work less hard for then I'm going to go after the lower hanging fruit. -sv -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
