Both were from people who live out of town and were "just traveling through the area," and they had some high end cards to sell. One was a raw Jordan RC. The shop owner told him to bring it in. Now, I don't know for sure that the Jordan was stolen, but when a non-local person "just travelling through" comes into your store with a high end card (and perhaps sells it for 25% of book), then it begs the question of whether the card is stolen.
Hence, when I say he deals in hot cards, what I'm really saying is that he does not ask any questions when he buys even though he probably should.

Have you considered alerting the authorities?
