[Raffles]

If anyone fancies some CD's or DVD's for nowt then all you have to do is nip down to your nearest HMV store and help yourself:-

Thats laughable. HMV not only have a dog in the old logo they seem to be barking themselves too!

Maybe there is more to the story than this?

Even so, chasing down a thief for some DVDs is probably not a great idea, if they have a knife, who is going to be paying out the compensation? HMV I'd imagine! And it'll be a lot more than a few DVDs.

the theif hasnt stole anything until he leaves the shop anyway so whats the point of a guard in the first place

'20 DVDs is £200'

Is £200 worth getting stabbed?

I had a knife pulled on me when I tried to stop someone stealing a couple cans of red bull from the shop I used to work in.

Learned my lesson there and then.

Another time, a manager in a shop a few miles away was stabbed in the leg trying to stop someone drinking a bottle of vodka IN the store.

I wonder what happened to the guy who stole the DVDs then. I'd put money on that he got away with a slap on the wrist.

Correct me if I'm wrong but I thought it was only an offense AFTER you leave the shop with the goods?

Point being, if HMV's store policy is to only nab them whilst they're inside the store and not pursue once they've left, technically they've done nothing wrong?
