In my campaign that I DM I have a player that has dumped a lot of skill points into move silently, bluff, hide, diplomancy, tumble, and use magic device (not disable device) and is going all willy nilly stealing things from stores, then selling them to other stores, using his diplomancy and bluff skill to get the best price possible. At the present time he is -significantly- ahead in net worth compared to the other characters. I am just now seeing how the thieve's guild and other organized crime rings can stomp down on some of this, but are there any suggestions for how to curb, or at least control, this? Traps, guard systems, security systems, extradimensional storage places, whatever. I just have trouble making up significant (but not necessarily impenetrable; he -has- put effort into this) defenses on the spot, and definitely not hard and fast numbers.
Suggestions?
Thanks,

Um, no offense but does this guy have any skill ranks in Sleight of Hand?? This should always be opposed to Spot skills of all persons in the store. Someone's bound to roll a 20 or he's bound to roll low. So once he's got it now he has to stash it on his person so tha's another Sleight of Hand check (to conceal item on person) so that's another set of opposed spot rolls. Eventually this guy is going to get caught. Simple as that.
Besides everyone knows that the real valuable stuff is underneath a glass case or lock and key. Been in a jewelry store lately? Simply substitue all the jewelry for magic itmes and walla, D&D store...
