If it was the met, this wouldn't surprise me. Unrelated anecdote but a company I worked for was burgled a few years ago but the three desktop PCs were recovered by them. When asked if we wanted the kit back or disposed of (insurance had covered it already) we asked for the systems back so we could dispose of the disks ourselves. What turned up? Three monitors. The PC were "disposed of by accident because they didn't know what they were". Hmmm.
