I saw this posted on another forum, if you see any suspicious sales, you can either contact the victim or me and I will contact him.

"The following items were stolen from my house in Santa Fe, NM yesterday. I was told by the forensics team that Denver and Albuquerque are the two most likely markets these would go to.
I doubt the thieves were astro-savvy so they probably will try to move them packaged the way they got them. Please PM me if you see anything.

Apparently the eyepieces are being sold on eBay but the police are having difficulties contacting EBay..
