Keys stolen

Post by cliffxtc »

My keys and spare keys (kept in a different place) have been stolen from my car. Luckily I did have a few old ones which fitted most of my machines. However if anybody has spares for the following I'd be interested in buying :
Northern Beaver Flat Pak twin column tattoo
Three column sweet machine (not sure of the brand, only one of it's type I have)
Southern Beaver sweet/toy machines (the type you put on stands) not s1 or s55

Thanks guys.

Capsuled toys and sweets in bulk, and in tubs, replacement value about £200. Police asked if I would like to meet the thief and tell them what it meant to you and so on if they catch them...I said only if I have the first punch.

:lol: wouldn't that be good!

Hope you get it sorted out soon.

Wonder where the stock etc will end up,boot sales,gumtree or dumped.

Hate people like this that can cause so much inconvenience for the sake of the few quid they will make.

We (Me & two others) hade a spate of moped crimes, got them on cctv, same guy did 20-30 machines, even got a name,even rode off with a machine across his back, lost about 4k over 12 months. All reported, never heard a thing.

Stopped now though.
