If you buy stolen property...

... you simply don't receive title to that property.

>> You're just kidding, right?

Imagine your shiny new Lexus sitting in your driveway as you fall asleep.

Some scumbag steals it.

The scumbag meets his pal in a bar and "sells" it to him.

Who owns the Lexus? Where is the money that the scumbag's pal paid?

Amazon has set itself up as the scumbag's agent in this case. When Amazon discovers the theft, it simply takes the money it paid to the scumbag and pays it back to the scumbag's friend. The original owner still owns the property.

How tough is this to understand?
