It may turn out that we are not only supporting the handling of stolen goods, but most often become handlers ourselves. A handler is not only someone who buys stolen items, but also a person who hides such items or helps sell them. It is worth remembering that by looking for items at prices that are too good to be true, we may expose ourselves to criminal liability. Handling stolen goods is punishable by up to 5 years in prison.
REMEMBER! Our “bargain” very often means a loss for someone else. Fewer handlers of stolen goods = fewer thieves.
