My car window got smashed. RM5k worth of dive gear stolen. The thief will try to sell it so I'm rallying the Malaysian dive community to keep a lookout for sale offers of:
 1) Regulator- atomic aquatic M1, primary and alternate air source, Mares SPG
 2) BCD- Zeagle stiletto
 3) fins- mares quattro open heel
 4) mask- atomic aquatic frameless
... ... The bastard will probably sell them separately to avoid suspicion so just help me forward to all dive shop owners and divers who deal gear...especially those in KL city center....
 If you have any info please send me a FB message.
 Thank you! Together we can get back the equipment ...its not impossible. People who love the ocean hate thieves!! =D
Please call Grace at 0123986830 if you have any info.

Really sorry to hear about this. Could you advise where exactly it got stolen?
cause if the thing happen near to the dive shop location , this mean that the thieves is familiar with diving stuff.
I really hope divers too will not buy from this people cause if people start to buy then the thieves has now find new things steal and sell.
Did you label or mark any of your gears just so that it could be easily recognize as stolen goods?
Like me i mark with a symbol so i know if my things accidently taken by other divers.
I not only mark, i even took a picture of each stuff i owned.

sorry to hear that - can you also impart us with more details, such as:

1- BCD (size)
2 - Fins (size, colour)

and as Run mentioned, any distinguish markings that will help with identifying them.
