would this Deter you from buying used gear????


Remember the shooter(shooters) who terrorized the Washington DC area? Two of those shootings took place
within 3 miles of my home. As a result, I've become
involved with assembling a neighborhood watch group.
My question is, as part of this home safety program, it
will be a requirement to engrave my driver's license #
on posessions i.e. cameras, tv's, (and yes, audio gear.)
Would this process have any bearing on you buying quality
used gear from me????
Give it some thought, I foresee this scenario spreading
throughout our country.

Is the DL so much better than giving the serial number when reporting it stolen? I don't think I'd like to deal with anyone who puts their DL# on their stuff.
Tok20000, this is not just paranoia,it is also collective dementia.I would never buy this gear because would not think highly of the seller.
Putting your driver's license # or SS# on something only gives the thieves something else to steal- YOUR IDENTITY! If they're polite they will send you a thank you note.
You could weld a plate to your equipment and that way everyone who buys the component after you can engrave their ID on it also, thereby having the capability of tracking all the owners.

Keep your head down!!!!
i went as for as putting a tat of my d.l. on my daughters forehead..... as the kinks sang: "paranoia will destroy ya.....and it goes like this"....sheesh, insurance anyone?
