Thief Steals Sterling Silver

Not too long ago, we told you about how law enforcement officials in North Carolina were looking for a man who decided to get some silver the easy way—by stealing it from a pawn shop. Unfortunately for him, the store had a surveillance camera, so the police do have some idea of what he looks like. We certainly hope they catch this silver coin thief and bring him to justice.

A vendor of silver at a festival to celebrate apples in Ohio may have found that one bad apple spoils the bunch. When the man arrived at the tent where he sold sterling silver jewelry, among other things, he found that he had been robbed.  A silver thief (or was it silver thieves?) had made off with 600 sterling silver rings and 400 sterling silver necklaces. Oh, and they also took a few t-shirts as well. But those could not have been nearly as valuable as the sterling silver jewelry.

Crime doesn’t pay and theft is always wrong. Still, some local residents were scratching their heads at the lack of security surrounding the obviously desirable sterling silver jewelry. The vendor has left all of those hundreds of sterling silver rings and sterling silver necklaces unlocked overnight.

For your part, you do not have to resort to crime to take advantage of the great prices in the silver market. Apparently those criminals recognized that silver is quite valuable and you too should recognize the value of silver.

You are free to sell silver to a silver buyer and get cash for silver. You may not have as much sterling silver jewelry as that vendor had, but whatever you do have is surely more than what he had after that unfortunate robbery.
