Stolen tools

[laney06]

Hi guys,
Two things. 1) if you have a pre 2008 expert, scudo, dispatch, your locks are useless.

Had my van broken into yesterday on b&q carpark in wednesbury, west mids.
Security guard saw it all, and it was captured on CCTV. Took 22 seconds to get into and empty my van ( Peugeot expert 55 plate)
It appears the barrel of the locks are held in by a poxy clip. Easily poked out with a screwdriver. Get yourselves some lock defenders if you own one of the above.

2) megger 1553 serial no 61117720706071327.
Dewalt 24v sds drill with 2 batteries, one air cooled.
Dewalt 12v drill
Bosch 24v sds drill in distinctive case. Yellow line paint across the front.
Makita core drill
Makita circular saw with damaged cable 110v

Any info leading to the recovery of items or conviction of the spineless rats will get rewarded.

Cheers .
Laney.

Had a load of my tools stolen from Ikea inm wednesbury a few years ago, on a bank holiday in full view of a cctv camera, when i enquired in the store about CCTV footage, was told 'sorry the cameras are not working at the moment. :cry_smile:

Feel for you mate, its not a nice area round there

[ratboymark]

sad day when ANY tool gets stolen hope the rozzers are of some help after they have their donuts n do you for having a dodgy back door hanging open while you drive round lookin for scrotes sellin tools GGGRRR As for puting a fault like this on a public forum hope none of the scrotes see this Have citrone/pugerot said anything about their lack of ability to do what they are made for ( probably something like Not Fit For Purpouse) or something through trading standards

If there's a pound or so in it, they will be on it..........

Had my van broken into last month, luckily only my old useless makita drill got taken but they took my stereo which was my pride and joy :-( I'm from reading and there's been alot of that recently.

To all the guys saying that they are now worried, get some decent locks for ya van. They really aren't expensive!

Someone I was on a course with said his friend bought a Megger off eBay and sent it to be calibrated and never got it back as it had been reported as stolen.

Gutted for you mate, mine is a dispatch and got broken into in london a few months ago.

The locks are so easy to get into that I had to do a double take just to confirm they had been done. This may be a blessing as you won't have a major repair bill for the van as well as your tools cos they would have got in whether it was easy or not.

I was very lucky as all my gear was locked away in the van vault, best money I ever spent. £70 2nd hand and tapped and bolted through the floor of the van. That would be my advice rather than try to secure the van itself.

This site Immobilise :: The National Property Register, for phones, gadgets, bikes & more... - is checked by Police and is a national register for stolen items. Crooks are quite often stopped with suspected stolen goods but the owner cannot be traced.
