    As for outrage - the buying price says about everything you need to
    know. That's the price of a "fence". (Or so I've heard ;<} ) 

    But as a point of fact, here in SF and as far as I know everywhere,
    you need a "Pawn Broker's License", just as Peggy lays out, in order
    to buy jewelry legitimately from the public. And then you need to do
    the things she says - send paperwork to the PD and all. It doesn't
    mean you're a pawnbroker, that's just the license. Here the hold
    time for merchandise is 20 days. I don't buy from the public, so I
    don't have one. I know that not everyone who does buy has one
    either, but that's their problem...
