    I am getting ready and packing the truck for the Harrisburgh Show and trip. I have some supplies in my trailer which I keep at a friends house . The trailer has our name and logo on it so I keep it there because it is in a high traffic area and acts as small billboard.

    Anyway, I stored my ratchets in the trailer and some excess medium size belts. It keeps them safe and out of the way.

    I got nervous walking up to the trailer becaus the lock was gone, sure eneugh someone has stolen 240 prunners and about 20 medium belts.

    I cannot imagine that this stuff would be easy to get rid of or to trade. I am asking you all to keep your eyes and ears open and if you hear of anything let me know. I will then hand it over to the local law enforcement. Any help is appreciated. I feel like I just got kicked in the stomach.

    I hope you've already notified law enforcement.

    And, I hate this happened to you (or anyone else).

    Hope they catch the perps.

    Yes, I called law enforcement as soon as I found that the items were missing.

    Sorry about your loss. I HATE a thief! What type of pruners were they that you had 240 of them? And the 20 "belts", are these climbing saddles? Just curious.

    Damn thieves! It is a bitter pill to swallow. Any chance they are covered under insurance?

    They are ratchet prunners. I sell them at the shows and on my website, the belts are climbing belts.

    When will you have pruners available for sale again? I see they are listed as out of stock on your website.

    THanks guys really appreciate it. I will have more pruners in 4 to 5 weeks. I have eneugh for the Harrisburgh show but it will be tough going after that.

    I am not sure it even pays to do the Iowa show.

    My bussiness insurance deductable is only 200.00 less than the value of the prunners so insurance wont help.

    Thanks for the kind words I needed it today.
