I know it's not the point, but was the equipment insured?
Have you informed the police?
-
That is bad news Doog! :'( :'(
I feel for you, what rotten luck :( :( :(
-
Bad luck mate. wish you could have caught em! scrats!
-
:o..........>:(......... :'(
Oh! that`s awful news, Doog; I`m so sorry! :'(
Can you not claim for at least some of the loss, via you car insurance? :-/
-
I am about to find out
need a crime ref number before the insurance will talk to me.
Meanwhile its pissing rain and i have 2 windows missing.
-
There's little to be constructively said about such a despicable act Doog other than I'm sorry that you've been victimised in this way.
-
.... been victimised in this way.
C'mon Den lets leave words like that where they belong ..... on the other side of the Atlantic ;)
-
What a bunch of scrotes - hope they can get them
-
feel for you but
leaving gear like that unatended in this day and age you was takeing a big risk
didnt your car alarm go off?
dont think your car insurance will cover it,but your house insurance might.

Sure thing A - happy to oblige. ;D ;D ;D :y

should be covered on a fully comp car policy with a decent insurer unless it was worth a huge amount, they might have a problem tho if its for professional use unless you've told them that already :-?
either way - it still sucks, probably find the gear popping up in a local "cash generator" soon as they always seem full of turntables :-/

I really feel for you mate. Life is pretty tough for folk who abide by the law and try and do the right thing only to be the victims of this sort of crime. Why should you have to double lock, fit alrarms and trackers on cars? Until you have had a car stolen or broken into or a house burglary you don't really appreciate the angst even if you think you are insured.
I seriously wish that governemnets would stamp on these perpetrators far harder than they do now.
My solution for what it is worth is to set up a giant car breakers business using these folk (when caught) then law abiding folk could buy parts at a reduced price. It could be located on a Scottish Island served only by a raliway line. SCROTES I hate them. Yet another reason why I left England having suffered myself from car theft and break ins. :y

Workshop, powertools, loud music, compressor running....
I could take his mind off the "clucking"!!! >:(
-
B**t*rds. If you caught one in the act and gave him (or her) a wallop you'd probably be the one getting your collar felt.

After a visit by the local cops I put the feelers out with the local druggies.
I thought i would mention to all the local drug users that i would pay a reward for information leading to the return of my gear ,
Within an hour the door went with a guy offering to go get my gear back as he knew who had it.
I told him i will pay him £50 if he could help withthe return of my gear
He took me a few streets away with my car he went into a house and demanded the gear brought it out and loaded it into my car at that point i handed him £50 and drove home.
when i got home a checked contents and NOTHING is missing so i phoned cops and notified them and insurance company to cancel the claim im not going to damage my no claims bonus for 2 windows .
dodgy but i got my stuff back
Doug
Turns out the guy who stole it didnt want to give him the gear and had to be "persuaded" quite strongly (saved me a job)
all in all cost me £50
-
:y Oh Doog, I`m so relieved you got it back, but how must you feel now; knowing where the thieves live. >:(
-
Great news Doug. ;D ;D ;D ;D Was the persuasion carried out with the help of a baseball bat?
On a serious note what did the local plod have to say about the retrieval of your stuff?
-
In your shoes I might be tempted to assist the scum in a house move by 'donating' a gallon of inflammable liquid. (when the house & it's neighbours are empty of course, as unfortunately it's not considered PC to cremate bodies before a death certificate is issued! >:() :-X

no but the person who helped me get the gear back kept complaining of a sore hand :D

sounds like a scene from "Point Blank" with Lee Marvin....or if you're younger, the inferior Mel Gibson version :y
