A man who received stolen tools worth more than $1600 tried to sell them at Cash Converters for $150.
Brad Haig Freddrick Johnston received tools included two nail guns that were stolen in a burglary.
Judge Philip Crayton said in the Whanganui District Court on Tuesday that Johnston tried to sell the tools at Cash Converters.
"You were trying to make a quick buck for yourself," he said.
"You've not only made a quick buck, you've landed yourself in a whole heap of trouble, and now you're going to have to make good, both by reparation and community work."
