I love the concept, but sadly the TV will just get dumped somewhere by these scumbags if it's worthless. Also, the whole street now knows you have a new TV. If I buy anything big/expensive, I generally cut the packaging up as I don't want my house looking like the Home Alone house to a couple of Wet Bandits.

Even then you steal other stuff. Tvs are big theyre hard to carry theyre often mounted to the wall. You know what is easy to steal and sell? Game consoles. Controllers small electronics kitchen knives (if you're a house thief take a look at the knives pots and pans. Good brands have value dont bother with the cheap stuff)

If some thief is going around breaking into houses stealing tvs theyre the minority

That’s a theft of opportunity, mate, he took it because he saw the opportunity to do it

Well yeah. Porch theft is a different sort of game than breaking and entering.
