Man, I am so incredibly happy for you. You are really and truly fortunate. Too often these cases turn out much differently.

ok good..so now you know what has to be done if they find the bums that originally stole the bassnextcliffburton wrote:I just got out of a movie, Inglorious Basterds (which was epic),
Re: SOMEONE STOLE MY RIC
that would be cool! Give the cops a chance - that are as understaffed and overworked as anyone else and have alot on their plates... I think this may actually happen here in this case. Keeping my fingers crossed! That would be a great footnote to very happy ending.marc61 wrote:nextcliffburton wrote:ok good..so now you know what has to be done if they find the bums that originally stole the bass

Re: SOMEONE STOLE MY RIC
I am VERY lucky, I can't believe it showed up. At first I was thinking "I'll get this back soon, I have the serial number and a police report and they probably are some crack heads just trying to make money, ill see it on Ebay, craigslist or a pawnshop." But after a month I was thinkin it was gone, can't believe it showed up. Hopefully the police contact me today with good news!
Re: SOMEONE STOLE MY RIC
CONGRATULATIONS JAKE!
I'm REALLY HAPPY FOR YOU!
You are a VERY LUCKY MAN!

Wish I was a fly on the wall when he opens his case and sees his bass again....and when the cops show up on the culprit's porch knocking on the door.
Because I told you before- oh, you can't do that.
Re: SOMEONE STOLE MY RIC
Do the police have possession of the bass yet?

If you need help with that, I know one of the scaplers in the movie. I was in a band with him in high school. I'm sure he'd be happy to give you a few pointers.

Re: SOMEONE STOLE MY RIC
Just got a new update.. The Ebay auction ended last night because the guy selling it was tipped off. They cops are right now trying to get the bass as we speak. I think they said it was at a pawn shop or somethen but talk about your heart dropping to your stomach. How the heck did he get tipped off!!!!!!! LASJFILJDKL!!!!!!!!
Re: SOMEONE STOLE MY RIC
It's possible he was tipped off by someone reading this thread or the one on another forum (if they're talking about it elsewhere, I haven't looked) or maybe he was just reading about it himself.
Regardless, it doesn't say a lot for a guy who runs with the property after it's known to be stolen. Sure, it sucks for the guy but if he was standup, he'd be able to cope with being ripped off by a thief.
