Scalping to the extreme! Explains a thing or two though...

These guys take scalping to a whole new level! Well, ok, not new, but they sure were successful at it!

These guys got caught. I wonder how many others like them are out there, going unnoticed. Considering this mother-son team knew what products were hot ticket items I think we can wager they stole highly sought after Transformers too. The article seems to imply they were after toys that were far more expensive but who knows. If a $10 toy can fetch $40-90 on ebay, I think it's safe to say they probably stole them too. Glad they were caught. Took long enough. $2 million worth of toy thefts, just from two people! That a crap ton of toys!
Theft-scalpering, because scalping isn't bad enough >.<
