I have a small business, cell phone store to be exact. But recently I have had folks who keep running out with cell phones and other high priced items. I do have security cameras and tape recordings but police take forever comming to the store and by then the criminal is so long gone. How do i protect myself? With a weapon to scare the criminals? Its a small business and I need every dollar I can save to pay back loans. PLease help!!!!

We do use dummy phones, but some customers want to see the real thing like the menus for a example. I am getting to the point where i am looking for something in self defense. Would anyone thing in that manner?

why don't you do what the bigger cell phone companies do. Just have dummy phones that are tethered to a stand, and have the real phones under lock and key in the back.

FireBetty74- has the right idea. Another idea is to post a sign on the front door...Criminals will be prosecuted and/or SMILE, you're on camera! The likely hood is that the crooks can't read, sorry.
