Re: Gear stolen from NAB 2012.
Happens every year, unfortunately. The sad part is, usually it's not
a grab & dash from the booth... it's an inside job that occurs after show hours, or during set-up or breakdown. |

Re: Gear stolen from NAB 2012.
Sorry as well to hear about this.
The folks in the Shape booth told me a new product was stolen and then discovered-- in the booth of another exhibitor. Additional stolen goods were found in that booth. It is my understanding he was arrested on the show floor (perhaps Wed afternoon, but I wasn't clear on the time). Ned Soltz |

One could intentionally move the merchandise (to another booth in this case), where the people might not even be aware of it's presence, and "ping-pong" the stuff from place to place until it's out of the gates. If he thinks someone has caught on to the fact that something's stolen, he leaves the stuff with someone else and is safe from suspicion. This can be done both with dead drops and changing hands with others if working in a group. It's an interesting psychological effect of how ignorant people are of new things that weren't there before, but immediately know when something's missing. |

I said the problem usually occurs after show hours, and during set-up and breakdown. The larger exhibitors rely on very well-known and fully vetted exhibit service companies such as G&S, MC2, etc. and those folks do an outstanding job... they move a mountain. They're not the problem, and they most certainly are not "cheap immigrant workers." The folks you're referring to are the "flippers" lining the sidewalk outside of the LVCC. Those of you who have been to NAB, CES, etc. know who I'm talking about. They're not the culprits either. And there are fewer and fewer of them each year... a sign of the economy, perhaps. No, the perpetrators of these trade show thefts sometimes are other less scrupulous fellow exhibitors, as Ned points out above, or they are of a much more "organized" variety that seems to operate out of Las Vegas much more brazenly than other major trade show cities that I'm familiar with, such as Orlando for instance. Go figure. |

Re: Gear stolen from NAB 2012.
Security was a serious concern to me in the run up to NAB as my business partner Richard (Davidson) was taking 3 complete sets of CB100's with him to show to various interested parties.
I had images of all sorts of grief getting them in and then again getting them out. It occured to me that the entire event must be a security nightmare of the very first order, with all that gear and all those people, especially after event hours. How the heck do they keep track of anything without creating an (inter) national incident if they get it wrong? In the event, nothing, nada, zip, not one word said about hassle either getting in or out with all that gear. I'n not saying there wasn't any, just it wasn't mentioned, though I find it staggering there wasn't a blip at some point. If there really wasn't a blip, I can see how just about anything could have gone "walkies". "Organised" individuals would probably know "every lock that ain't locked when no ones around" forwards and backwards, so have the run of the place. Suprised the full list is that short under the circumstances. CS |

the degree where they think that's actually an appropriate topic here. Allow me to assure everyone that it most certainly is not. |

Re: Gear stolen from NAB 2012.
I'm ignorant about this, perhaps it exists, but would it be worthwhile having a section here as a dedicated database of a list of stolen equipment and relevant serial numbers to check against?

Re: Gear stolen from NAB 2012.
Knowing that the odds of it actually providing a match are almost nothing, I'd still appreciate a list of stolen equipment /w serials I could check whenever I buy used gear.

Re: Gear stolen from NAB 2012.
That's deep in the too hard basket, too difficult and costly to keep current. Not seeing it listed as stolen on a list here or anywhere, buying it and
finding it is .. you couldn't blame anyone. The best course of action would be to run a web check on the serial numbers of ALL the used gear you intend buying, see if they pop up on any forums even to asking the seller where he bought it and check with them. You could maybe ask on the forums, whether has anyone had stolen a XXXXXX serial no. xx xxx xxx Cheers.
