Together with iPad Pro introduced Apple also the style or pencil Apple Pencil, which, unlike the gigantic tablet, is not yet available and only a few lucky people have obtained it. Potential customers could only try it out in Apple Storech, but even that is no longer the case. Several users on Twitter are reporting that official stores near them no longer have Apple Pencil not even on display, yet a few days ago, when they visited the store, several were on display.
The fault lies with the customers themselves, who calmly walk into Apple Storu, what they do is look at the pencil and then easily slip it into their pocket at the right moment and disappear unnoticed. They then sell it with great confidence on eBay, wherever they can Apple Pencil can be obtained up to 4 times more expensive.
Pro For a thief, stealing such a small object is very easy. Apple it is not attached or protected in any way and, unlike an iPhone or iPad, it cannot be tracked by a service such as Find My iPhoneBut this is partly a problem of the Applu, that he did not provide a way to Apple Pencil protect. Of course, this does not excuse the thieves themselves, who steal one pencil after another as if nothing had happened.

It's sad. Apple didn't think of how toevent Apple Pencil theft (easy solution too). Lots were stolen at the @MetropolisatMet store.

I experienced something similar in apple store in Barcelonaone two weeks ago, when on one day apple tv small siri the remote was just placed in the stand without any protection and the next day when I arrived there, the mentioned remote was already secured by the magnet on the wire.
I think it's quite easy to secure. As far as I know, it's on my body lightning and you just have to set it to start when you disconnect from the cable alarm. Although the functionality will be limited, the problem with theft will be eliminated, and there is always room to ask for the introduction of a genius and he will release the "pencil" completely.
