Earlier this week I saw a local add up for a new festool of2200 at $525. I called the guy and talked to him. He told me he won it and that he only had the router. No sustainer or small parts. I made arrangement to go pick it up at a local bar ;). I then called the local dealers and Lee Valley seemed real interested. I gave them all the info.  A while later I got a call from a police detective. We'll long story short they busted the guy. LV got their router back and all is well. I went into the store yesterday and talked to the manager on duty and they seemed real happy and shook my hand a couple times. Feels pretty good.
 
Very nice! It's nice to hear when a thief gets busted!  [big grin]

I wonder if it was the same guy that stole the drill... Are you in the Ottawa area? If so, there was a reward posted.

I am in Winnipeg. No reward offered. I am sure most members here would do the same.
 
It's always fun to see non-thinking thieves get their due process.  I'm not at all familiar with Canadian law but it certainly would be a felony here in the U.S.
 
Good work my friend! Not liking that Feestool is being stolen. It used to be that no one knew what it was so they'd opt for the popular common brands over my gear. Gonna have to tighten my security!
 
It is so seldom that stole tools get returned. It is good to hear about outcome.

I am sure everyone thanks you.
