[QUOTE="Alegandron, post: 2525733, member: 51347"]I read this and began to think about the guy's "LOGISTICS" to pull this off. Let's say for fun and simplicity, gold is $1200 /TOZ (HIGH). He "moved" $180,000 (let's say all USD or CDN for simplicity). $180,000 = 150 TOZ to "move" The article states: "His dealings allegedly netted him almost $180K over the course of a few months." Let's give him 6 months... BUTT, you have to be careful NOT to set off the alarms and raise too much suspicion. SOooo... can you "tuck" an OUNCE at a time? Nope, that would be a lot for an Airport Scan Arch (or wand) to set off an alarm... so maybe he "tucks" 1/4TOZ... 150 TOZ = 600 1/4 TOZ "tucks"... 6 months = 26 weeks x 5 working days = 130 working days to pull stock... 130 days for 150 TOZ is over an ounce a day that they guy was "tucking"... WOW, SECURITY was pretty lax. Or he would have to tuck on 1/4 TOZ and take 4 TRIPS per day out to his car to pull an TOZ a day! And that is saying a "few" months = 6 months! Holy Cow...[/QUOTE]
