A Shocking Burglary at Evey's Preloved
A businesswoman is urging caution after luxury bags worth tens of thousands of pounds were stolen from her showroom in Mill Hill, North-West London. Evey Amery, 57, expressed her distress, stating she "felt really upset" after the break-in, which occurred with a sledgehammer around 22:40 GMT on Tuesday. Alongside the designer bags, high-value watches were also taken.
Evey, who specializes in selling pre-owned designer bags, has built her business over several years. Despite the incident, she remains committed to her work, saying, "It's a little business but I'm here, I love what I do and so I will carry on."
Community Support and Police Investigation
The Metropolitan Police are actively investigating the burglary, gathering CCTV footage to aid their inquiries. While no arrests have been made, Evey described the break-in as "well planned" and has called on her colleagues to be vigilant, warning that unsuspecting buyers might be purchasing stolen goods.
She noted that many of the stolen bags were without their original boxes and dust covers, raising concerns about their resale.
Evey expressed her gratitude for the community's support following this "horrible thing to happen". She highlighted the genuine kindness of people who have reached out to help her during this challenging time.
"I'm not global or corporate, I love what I do. I love selling, I love chatting and I love pre-loved," she said, emphasizing the importance of community in the face of adversity.
