If a thief saw I have all these cameras I'm certain the next day he will come back and dump all the ones he has since no one will buy them anymore !!!

Pawn shops will buy ANYTHING... at the right price. $5K of camera gear for a $50 pawn? Sure... come on in!! Thief gets one satisfying fix.

mike you seem to have good knowledge on such issues, paranoia or experience?

BOTH!! I've learned from life's little "got you's". I'm skeptical, cynical, and I trust NO ONE. My first observation of theft from a trusted person was at age five. Ive seen too much since then to ever trust anyone ever again. In everything I do I know I'm taking a chance.

I don't feel so bad. As much as I would like to say "all in one place" I have yet to find a plastic bin (that isn't ridiculously huge) that can hold my big Voigtlander lens mounted on a 9 in. board. it currently resides in a big cardboard box on a TV shelf.

I have gear in closets, in bags and in bins on shelves and under the bed. If I go on, I'm going to realize just how much gear I own! Yikes!
