Wonderful thread, but guys, do you realize that many of you are giving away their GPS position when they post pictures with original Exif data?
I've seen worse. Seriously. Adult fans of Lego post pics with tens of thousands of dollars worth of Lego and GPS co-ords down to the metre(I've used those to navigate to a house before). And a lot of people collect whole Lego sets which are very re-sellable.
I suspect the same applies to a lot of the pics here. Sure, to a dedicated electronics hobbyist the tools are worth a lot, but on ebay not so much. The parts? Ha!
Instead I post pics like this one, where you have to know a little bit to even guess the replacement cost. Better, the value as random parts is small and hard to realise but there's a lot of labour required to re-assemble the sets (and the consequent pay per hour is not that great).
And some of the tools are pretty identifiable. It's like the muppet who stole my obviously one-of-a-kind custom bicycle. Cops brought it back half an hour after I reported it, saying "we saw this guy shortly after getting your photo through the computer". They were not actually rolling their eyes, but the only further news I got was an email saying "he pleaded guilty".
