waste not, want not

It's typical. Police in your area auction off confiscated property all the time cars, tv's, cameras, and everything else.

Alot of police departments now are using ebay to get top dollar.

**mardigras** · 05-03-2005, 10:51 PM

Woah, that's a lot of contraband! LOL, what the hell does someone do with 40 Pounds of assorted nail clippers or 50 pounds of corkscrews, used?

Scissors ... buy them and donate to a local school or after school club.

Cork screws ... um .. well umm ...

Ahhh ... hand them out to everybody behind you in line at the airport and have fun watching them go through security

Yep... I've seen articles where some departments work it into their budgets and set goals for amount they need to confiscate.

nothing.. not a damn thing... how are those considered weapons? its retarded and wrong of them to take it away then sell them... if a guy can take over an airplane with clippers, then you have bigger problems than that guy...

If you think someone can't die from a pair of clippers you need to read up on prison murders.

Due to 9/11 a lot more items cannot be brought onto airplanes. This is public knowledge. What you may not know is the study they did on prison weapons which outlawed most of these things.

its sad how people cant even travel in peace. If someone has to worry about being on a plane and the plane being taken over by a nail clipper then they should totaly stop all airplain flights... sit down and come up with a solution other then taking away everything someone is traveling with and selling it on ebay.

**bjjb** · 05-04-2005, 07:52 AM

Alot of stuff ends up here too tho not sold bt the NTSA

Wonder if they confiscated my hookah or its in unclaimed baggage lmao

**bringer** · 05-04-2005, 07:54 AM

they also auction off "misplaced" items even if they know who the owner is

**pxxx** · 05-04-2005, 07:55 AM

You can just sell it on ebay.

could have fooled me

it is against the law to carry those items on a plane

it is against the law to sell drugs

they take your shit when you try and board a plane

they take your shit when you get caught selling drugs

they sell both

**bjjb** · 05-04-2005, 04:22 PM

So Al.... Did my post office box return it this time like the other times you sent it? Just curious. I wanna close the book on this one and add it to the list

**Wiggles** · 05-04-2005, 05:20 PM

damn that is pretty cool, people should know what you can and can't bring on a plane.

A dude I know is buying stolen/recovered cars from police auctions and sells them afrterwards, makes good money too.

Look at the bargains, though. 50 pounds of steel scissors going for 33 dollars?

Anyone know if you can then take that somewhere and get paid for the scrap metal?

Would it be worth it?
