As far as that other comment goes...thats sick..and wrong..and just sick and wrong. I'd need rubber gloves and a clam shocker to get that job done...Ughhh uh uhuh uh....
Huh...I bet PLENTY.
Whatever. I've got the sack to say my piece "out loud" as it were. So does Scott. And Brent. And Lisa, Cris, Chris, Nolan, Mark, Dan.... you know the names & people. It's not meant to be offensive, just honest. And I quite frankly appreciate it. Cheers to you all, my friends!

Naw...they dont even want our fingerprints which tells us they didnt fingerprint the case. Theyve supposedly told the local pawn shops to keep an eye out for someone trying to unload a LOT of rings...
Im checking ebay within 100 miles of Richmond for the rings as well. Insurance now says they wont pay but 1500 bucks....ouch!
Good thing she has a business though. She will have a heck of a loss this tax year!

Yea, she will be fine. It just kinda hurt her emotionally more than anything. Thats the 4th time shes had an incident like this but not to this magnitude. Shes gonna keep the business goin as long as she can as far as the antiques go. No more jewelry though!
I feel kinda bad for it because I usually am in charge of the locks and such and didnt put a hasp on this one because I figured the staff would be diligent enough to not just watch traffic go by. I was wrong and mom was wrong. She didnt realize she was so under-insured and shes admitted she shouldve looked at it the last time something was taken. Very expensive mistake but life goes on. I told her a long time ago shes retired and she needs to just take that govt check every month and relax and do fun things, not stressful things!

Sorry to hear about all of this, Tristan. Too bad WE couldn't catch those guys.

I wish i could catch some of those bad guys for ya too Tristan. I would just have to make sure to get back to Canada before I got busted for busting those guys up!
I could do it, my 7.3 is stock, but it still moves pretty good!

At this point I would just like for someone to catch them! Dad called me 30 minutes ago and she cant even find rings at the house her mind is so messed up about this whole ordeal. I think it was a team of at least 2 people. Makes me want to put a bunch of fake crap back in that case with the same lock and just post up and see what happens. I dont think the older gentleman there working could get my big azz off the guy(s) who did this in time if I were there and saw it.

I know exactly what your saying Tristan, I really do. We staked out a couple of jobsites back in the day when my boss kept losing his tools, trailer and lumber....It was an employee that we had fired....camera caught it all....

Hell, if this dude is looking for someone to roam the store Id be willing to do it for next to nothing on the weekends just to catch them! I doubt they will come back for a long time with a nice score like that but it would sure make me feel better!

Scott - you da man!
That's why I liked the O/T better back in the 7.3 forum. We all have our opinions and respect the fact that we're going to disagree. We'd argue & stand our ground, but nobody cried about it and broke out the ruffled pink panties. We've had some good "newbies" join us but I'm sure there are plenty of lurkers, whispering behind their hands about what some of us say. Whatever. I've got the sack to say my piece "out loud" as it were. So does Scott. And Brent. And Lisa, Cris, Chris, Nolan, Mark, Dan.... you know the names & people. It's not meant to be offensive, just honest. And I quite frankly appreciate it. Cheers to you all, my friends!

Tristan that whole ordeal sucks man. Hopefully ya'll can catch the people responsible.
