Although I try to warn people about buying fishing equipment on the Web, it's usually because I don't want them buying a pig-in-a-poke or end up with the wrong thing in their quest to save a buck or two.

I have to admit though, I never thought of the story I read about an enterprising UK man who stole fishing tackle and then sold it on Ebay.


I must admit I've bough a few fishing items from Ebay. Luckily, it's always worked out for me. This story shows one thing--Wal-Mart is everywhere!
