I get asked if i want to buy something from the back of a van quite regularly.. I just tell them i am not interested whilst keeping one eye on all my tools that i have out. you never no they could be scoping out the site as the next hotspot
I would say the highest likelihood is that the machines are the very cheap and often dangerous copies brought in by container loads from China. Also there is a chance that a supplier has been broken in to (It happened to F R Jones not too long ago)and are getting rid of stolen gear....Then there is the fact that they know you are a machinery user and are checking you out!
ALways remember, if you buy second-hand tools from a dodgy source the chances are they are stolen from a hard working trader like us.
When they sell out, they need to fill the van again. It could well be your tools they steal.
If there's no demand, they'll steal something else.
