Yeah, I was aiming at high visibility research for Craigslist shoppers. I'm limited by Twitter, but luckily the bikeindex site looks good on mobile too.

- mbesto 12y agoLove the idea but can't totally grok the incentive to lookup the stolen status as a buyer. If I'm getting a good deal why would I care?
- bike_index 12y ago1. Reporting stolen bikes makes it harder to sell stolen bikes, making bike theft less profitable - and ultimately making it less likely that you'll be looking for a good deal on a new bike, since your old one won't have been stolen. 2. Some people actually do care. 3. Buying stolen property is illegal
- DrJ 12y agoisn't (3.) 'knowingly' buying stolen property that is illegal? but 'unknowingly' buying stolen property would at worst mean you will have to surrender the property to the original owner?
