Mar. 4th, 2004 10:51 amElectronics Boutique deals in stolen property.
Synopsis: Someone's neighbor jacked her playstation and some games, then fenced them at an Electronics Boutique. He's pled guilty, and admitted that's where he fenced the games. EB violated Florida State Law by not waiting 15 days before re-selling the fenced goods, and now refuses to make good on it to the original owner. At first, they wanted to sell the stuff back to her at retail prices. The best offer they've made is to sell the software back to her at their cost, but not the play station.
I will no longer do business with Electronics Boutique, and I recommend you don't, either. I was under the impression that dealing in stolen goods was a criminal offense, and I hope someone at corporate finds themselves looking out a cage over this.
