Stolen property


How to confirm speakers not stolen?

ptss

In my teens/early 20s, I had an acquaintance try to sell me a car amplifier from Orion.  Those things were beasts back in the early 1990s.  He brought me to his car but before he opened his trunk, I asked him if it was 'hot'.  Of course he said no and proceeded to open his trunk and show me.  I took a 2 second look and said, yep, it's 'hot' alright.  The dudes cut off the RCA leads right at the amp with the RCA connectors still attached to the amplifier :D  I literally could not stop laughing.

Thanks for the helpful comments. Saving a few bucks isn't worth dealing with a fraudster. I'd feel very embarrased to buy stolen goods. Just wouldn't look good to my son or friends.
