Yes, sorry to hear. I always wonder about security at big shows like that.
Rest in Peace

With the serial numbers being recorded I cant imagine that these will be easy for the thief to sell.

Steele, let's hope they are successfully recovered; if not let's hope the guilty party does something really stupid like posting them for sale on this (or other) forum.

I'm sorry but if I ever deal at any future show, I'm going to have cameras everywhere around my table. I know one dealer that does this. Sad world we live in but that's just reality.

Surveillance tech has improved so much and gotten so affordable that it's a cheap insurance policy at this point. Why wouldn't you?

They were misplaced and never brought to the show to begin with, according to the owner.
