Kofisays...*promote
siftbotsays...Self promoting this video and sending it back into the queue for one more try; last queued Wednesday, August 15th, 2012 12:39am PDT - promote requested by original submitter Kofi.
Magicpantssays...The owner is kind of a moron for telling the thief that the cops were on the way.

siftbotsays...This video has been flagged as being Not Suitable For Work - declared nsfw by brycewi19.
Hive13says...This guy handled it the complete wrong way. He should have called the cops FIRST and then gone up to "purchase" the bike taking his sweet time chatting to the dude until the cops showed up.
He got too emotional and nervous and just let the cat right out the bag. Craig and his girlfriend would have been easily arrested.
I especially love that he just bailed and left his girlfriend behind. Classy.
redyellowbluesays...Biker owner said it himself. "Try to think of a plan and not be emotional about it" He fell victim to his own emotions when he let the cat out of the bag. Seams reasonable when you have your adrenaline pumping; normal human nature in action. Not unless he is a pro at confronting thieves could he possibly keep his cool and composure.
ambassdorsays...I had doubts as to whether he was the thief, but to admit, on camera that you were willing to knowingly buy a stolen bike because you read that it was okay... COME ON!
dooglejokingly says...Good work putting the whole sting in jeopardy for a few seconds of in-your-face citizen journalism. Getting the guy to back-pedal on his story was golden video content.
Thank your friends for being able to stitch your whereabouts for the police arriving on scene whenever they did.
And thank your lucky stars the guy didn't risk assaulting you to get you off his tail so he could high-tail it outta there without you on his ass.
Calling the police before you went on your sting would've been a better idea. <- not sarcastic.
sickiosays...Not sure if the cops in the US would do this, but in the UK you can pop into the local station and tell them what is happening and they will send a plain clothes cop with you for the sting.
It works much better as the cop will ask the right questions (dates, times etc...) to the seller to help implicate him.
