The CA or DA won't even consider trying the case unless the valve of the property stolen is above $1500. I'm using San Diego as the example, since that was where I worked.

OK, I was talking to my son about it, and he tells me that the store management won't do anything about it because they don't want the store to get a name for arresting people. Yeah, that doesn't make sense to me, either. They don't actually call the police, so I was wrong on that. They're not going to go after someone if they don't get a crime report.
