He may have taken her to the cleaners but sooner or later he's gonna bite the dust. Gee, I hope she didn't have an attachment to her jewelry.
When they catch the culprit they should whip him with a hose.

That just sucks, and probably more than the vacuum cleaners the guy was selling. What's this world coming to when you can't even trust a vacuum cleaner salesman! I thought they were jewels in the rough!
