I also thought that they had to register the stuff with the police! They're supposed to in Toronto, but maybe it's a Toronto-only thing. You should have that guy shut down, especially for telling you they didn't have the stuff when they did. Place a complaint with the local police or the RCMP, I'm sure that they'd be glad to help, especially if the shop has done it before (which seems likely). -Aaron - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
