I'd hang it on my wall. Sounds like something my soon to be wife would do. If she actually fell for it i'd hang it on the bed room wall to let her "watch" it every night.

Yep. They pass up the actual plasma TV in order to steal the oven door

How the hell can someone not tell the difference between an oven door and a plasma TV?

Why the hell would you buy something on the streets without taking a look at the goods?

Why over doors though, if the people aren't smart enough to look in the box before they buy it, you could fill the box with rocks or bricks. These crooks need to go rent Mo' Money to see how it is done.

probably because an over door is close to the weight and size of a plasma tv?

Well then it sounds to me like the people buying the "plasmas" deserve to get ripped off if they're not checking the contents.

Anyone who can mistake an oven door for a plasma tv probably wouldn't realize the difference.

well, its pretty obvious that its a rip off scam just by hearing about it. you'd have to be pretty stupid to even consider it.

plasma tv
$300
sold on the street


not hard to figure out that its either a scam

Sounds like it would be more interesting to hear about the tards buying this shit than the thieves selling it.
