What they do is have many people steal stuff under $950, every day. It adds up over time. They usually steal things with a long shelf life and then resell it on ebay, amazon and other places. It's an organized theft ring. > that's probably insured anyway That's a pretty poor attitude, imho. You're ok with stealing things as long as they're "insured?" Who pays the insurance, and what are insurance rates based on? Insurance companies are looking at these multi-million dollar losses and jacking up the rates in these areas, or not covering certain areas at all. The end result is businesses are closing, and the community is losing access to various stores because of it. So, who's really benefiting from this?
