Was telling my labourer when a mate of mine got scammed by a couple of pikeys . We were working on the new Tesco,s supermarket in bristol and had been working there for a few weeks and noticed that a group of pikeys had moved onto some land by Tesco,s and every now and then they would come on to the job and try and sell stuff , well this day we had sat down to have lunch when two pikeys approached us trying to sell a VHS video recorder , i said no thanks striaght away but my mate was really interested in it, i had tried to tell him dont do it but he feel for it and paid £40 for the VHS recorder . We went back to work but he could not wait to finish to try out his new video recorder so we finished early and he went on home , about a hour had gone by and my mate rang me to say that the VCR was not working so i said to bring it to our dads house as he repairs all sorts which he did and i meet him there , our dad took the top of the VCR off to find a breeze block wedged in the VCR were all the electronics should be , needless to say my mate was gutted and the next day when we went to confront the pikeys and surprise surprise they had gone
 
Some people will never learn...
Usual one with the pikeys is battery drills with no insides.
A m8 and me managed to get one over on the pikeys one day though, they turned up with what looked like some nice new makita drills, baking hot day, skint etc, we said we had no money etc and was gagging for a drink, so the pikeys bought us a pint each and made the arrangement to meet up later in the afternoon to buy the drill, needless to say, we didnt bother turning up....hehehe.
