SurfRats.com :: View topic - SERIAL NUMBERS OF THE VAN STAAL STOLEN YESTERDAY
----------------------------------------------------------------------
There was a robbery that occurred at Saltwaters Tackle in Long Island. Below are the serial numbers of the Van Staals stolen. Keep an eye out for them and please spread this to all the message boards everywhere. That means all the boards from the east to the west coast. You never know where the reels will end up.

In any case, you must NOT buy any used or new Van Staals (unless from authorized VS Dealers) without serial number verification. And off course, if your Van Staal gets stolen, please contact Van Staal itself and report it. If they ever get it for repairs and service, they can pick up on it. Secondly file a police report immediately.

These were in the show case at the tackle shop as they didn't get the boxes.

VS100 Serial #14636

VS150 Serial #13745

VS200 Serial #14652

VS275 Serial #15908

If anyone has any information, please call the Suffolk County Police Department. They have a Crime Stoppers Hotline 1-800-220-TIPS. The tackle shops phone number is (631)539-9422.

If you notice any suspicious sales online at various fishing forums, eBay, craigslist or any of the other online auction sites, please call the tips hotline immediately.

Time for our fishing community to band together when such tragedies strike.
