I commute by bicycle on my way home through Lamont Park, and for the
last few years, everyday, there is a guy selling toys by the gazebo.
Yesterday he was selling a razor scooter for $4. That's a great price
seeing that I just bought one on Amazon for $27. In the past it's
been a mix of small toys like things that could easily have been left
in a backyard or on a porch.

A friend of mine who used to live on 18th and Monroe complained that
things like strollers and toys would get stolen off her porch all the
time.

Is this guy spending his days stealing from your property and then
reselling the stuff at Lamont Park later that day? I'm going to ask
him tonight.

Has anyone lost a razor scooter this week?

You're going to walk up and ask some street vendor you don't know if he's stealing the stuff he's selling?

Let me know how that works out for you.

I just cross-posted this from [email address removed - log in to view] since I know that the question of missing strollers had popped up here a few times.

Is a gazebo larger or smaller than a boat-load?

....depends on whether your dingy is a yatch or not.
