A County Down man accused of selling stolen goods on auction website eBay may have his bank accounts frozen, the High Court has heard.
Paul Fegan, 39, of Riverside Terrace in Mayobridge, is charged with offences including handling stolen goods.
A prosecution lawyer said 40 pairs of designer spectacle frames stolen in Newry in April ended up being sold on eBay later that month by Mr Fegan.
The bail hearing was adjourned to allow for a decision on his bank accounts.
The prosecution lawyer said 40 pairs of designer frames worth £125 each were stolen from the Specsavers store in Newry’s Buttercrane Shopping Centre.
