Stolen Bonsai!

[PaulH]

My friend and club member had 3 trees stolen last night at 3:30 AM in Sacramento, CA . Unfortunately the security video wasn't clear enough to identify the two thieves. Here are two trees, a cork bark black pine and a pomegranate. Also taken was a hornbeam forest.

People suck……

Pieces of crap. I will keep an eye out locally.

Loved his name tag for the tree. Stunning...I pray that within the small community they find themselves back.

Happened to me last year. Maddening. I doubt they pop up here in Florida but I'll keep my eye out on the internet.

I never can understand what people think they are going to do with them. It's very hard to resell them because they are so recognizable.

It depends on the class of criminal.

When we lived in the city, our car window was smashed for the $3 in toll change in the ash tray. Cop told us that's $3 they didn't have before and all it cost them was a rock they picked up off the ground.

The trees may be very valuable, but criminals may sell them for $5 on a street corner to the average Joe who knows shit about bonsai and would never recognize them. The criminals still come out ahead by their measure.

Criminals are more rational than we think...but motivated by a different set of goals

Slimeballs. I hope he gets them back and they punish the thieves.

Soo sorry to hear! At least the thieves had good taste.

That's maddening, I hate to see that!


Unrelated, is anyone looking to buy a Hornbeam forest? Free hexagon pot included
