EBay, Collectors, Flea Market & Antiques

It happened in the afternoon when the place was busy. There were 2 men and a woman. They emptied out a shelf in a locked booth that contained diamond and gold jewelry. From what I heard, it was tens of thousands of dollars worth of stuff gone in an instant. Fortunately, the dealers who were selling the jewelry had it insured. They got the thieves on tape and the police dusted for prints, so I hope someone is eventually caught. No one recognized them. None of us had any idea those locks could be compromised so easily. If you have anything in a locked case that has sliding glass, carefully push on the lock to be sure the glass won't bend enough to allow the other piece of sliding glass to push right over the lock. That's what happened in this case. The whole thing is pretty shocking.
