Not really. I spoke to the guy who has just installed his new IT system. He's changed his way of operating to just doing what Avron does, which is selling on consignment. So no, I'm not surprized.
He's also really jacked up his record keeping, apparently. Seems as if things are changing for the better...
Well, either that or his garage is now full of the stolen bikes and the shop is just a side thing... Would be very surprised if he proved his garage/house has no bikes other than his own right now. If he carried on dealing with stolen bikes so openly, he would go to jail soon, he had to become a bit more intelligent about it sometime! Still never justified any of the 8 or 9 odd stolen bikes he's been caught with which means he doesn't have any guilt about it (I would personally be running around trying everything to fix my reputation if I was found with even 1 stolen item and definitely wouldn't make the same mistake again!)...
If you take stolen bikes on consignment, does that mean the thief now carries the risk instead of Neal as he only gets paid once the bike's slipped through undetected?
