I've just launched the largest database of stolen photographic equipment on the internet, it's an compilation of some pages already available, plus I have some manufacturer's cooperation and am on their list of registered stolen shipments and goods. It's free to search and report missing items. http://stolencameras.net people that report can choose to have a report published to the search engines and google seems to be crawling through as I write. Yahoo has already been so that covers altavista, hotbot, alltheweb and however many others they now own. If anyone has a really long list of stolen goods then pass it directly to me as I have various programs to speed up the data entry, although unless I get a copy of an insurance report or police report, things are marked as "UNPROVEN" to stop potential fraudulent reporting. A beta web spider is in operation scanning some of the online auctions for serial numbers although this is very much in testing at the moment.
