Hope the bar stewards are caught.
 
On the positive side, Nikon's yearly sales total for the D3X just quadrupled :)
 
Seems that someone just faxed in an order and they sent the whole lot out without checking..!

Having looked a bit more into it, it seems that someone faced in a fake purchase order from the BBC, not a great way of being caught out.
 
Ah the BBC scam. Happened at a local independent TV shop I worked at.(before I joined) I think the business lost in the region of £20k from it and because they hadn't seen the cards the banks wouldn't do anything.

8 top end Nikons is alot to lose....
 
no surprise about police work :), I suppose there aren`t enough of them to spare or something
 
I just sent an order to RW for 15 x 600mm lenses in the name of Mr Nick On. I wonder if they'll send them? :)
 
At least no one got hurt in this robbery and in a strange way you have to admire the conmens audacity
Seems the shop and the old bill are pretty useless
 
On a plus note I just realised how cheap their prices are an they are only down the road :)
 
actually scrap that, just realised prices are excluding vat thanks to another thread on here, grrr got all excited...

They may not be the cheapest but their service is excellent and I do not mind paying a little extra for that. It is also worth keeping an eye on their website for the ex demo kit they sell of. The 105vr micro I got that was exdemo you could not tell had been out the box and saved me a fair amount.
