    Wish they got these guys more often, and with stricter penalties. It would stop them from doing it

    The story makes no sense. What I am getting is he paid $7000 for some cards. Then he sold the cards,
    receiving $6250? On top of that he faces possible jail time, and possible loss of job.

    He apparently resold some of the stolen cards, not all.

    Cubby-- I guess the part you missed was that he knew he was dealing in stolen goods. Buying and selling goods you know to be stolen is a
    crime.

    I think he got that, but was trying to figure out who buying stolen goods and selling them at a loss males sense.

    The answer is that the scumbag wasn't selling at a loss, and that the $6250 was for only some of the stolen cards.
