The only lens I bought on e-bay that I know for sure was stolen had a very
detailed description from a very knowledgeable seller with clear photographs.
Imagine my consternation when about a year later I receive an e-mail from a
police department asking for all the details of the sale and a deposition to be
used in court...

Indeed. I've bought about 15 bits of Pentax kit off eBay in the last
couple of months, and I'm starting to worry about how much of what is on
offer is stolen. Some of it has to be, obviously, since eBay is just too
convenient for it not to be used for that, but how much? My suspicion
mostly falls on items with very little description, where the sellers
don't answer technical questions.
