I just received this email blast:
U.S. Nationals Vendor Needs Your Immediate Help! Arabian Saddle Company's (ASC) truck and trailer, along with their entire show stock were stolen from the parking lot of the Extended Stay Hotel on Saturday night after packing up from U.S. Nationals in Tulsa, Okla. The goods alone are worth several hundred thousand dollars. If you or someone you know is offered a significantly reduced price on any of ASC's products, or you see their products advertised anywhere (ebay, local retail store, etc.), other than their official website or from an authorized dealer, please contact the Tulsa Police Department 918-596-COPS (2677) immediately. |

Is the truck or trailer carrying logos or anything? Picture or descriptions might help.

I think this needs to be posted on ALL the forums - all breeds also. Don't know how smart these crooks are but checking eBay
might be a start for tracking stolen goods. -------------------- Angelique

I think this needs to be posted on ALL the forums - all breeds also. Don't know how smart these crooks are but checking eBay might be a start for tracking stolen goods. But I'm wondering if there interest was in the truck and trailer more than the goods inside. I posted this alert on COTH also. -------------------- Angelique

I have emailed it to many all breed people.
I have also posted this short version as my status on Facebook and encourage others to do so: Arabian Saddle Company's truck and trailer, along with their entire show stock were stolen If you or someone you know is offered a significantly reduced price on any of ASC's products, or you see their products advertised anywhere (ebay, local retail store, etc.), other than their official website or from an authorized dealer, please contact the Tulsa Police Department 918-596-COPS (2677) immediately |

Has there even been a discription of the trailer? I live near a major freeway and truck over night parking spot. Yesterday I saw something I might have reported if I knew what to look for.

The trailer is a white 22 foot trailer with no markings and an Arizona plate.
I sure hope they were insured, but geez, the nerve of people |

I also wonder if a cell phone left with your stuff could be traced with one of the kid locater services... -------------------- "Keep your dreams as clean as silver
