:ponder2: Hmmmm....and Plaid offered me a NIB Revo 3.3 for $200.00 also. Coincidence?

He offered me $150, you are getting ripped dude!


Same thing happened to my LHS, except the thieves crashed through the storefront glass with their car to get in.
 
Our LHS has been hit several times over the years.
Even with cameras they do a smash and run and get away with it.
Steal a car, cover the plates, and wear a mask. Poof 2-3 minutes and the place is cleaned out.....

ASSHOLES!!!!!
 
Hmmm, let's see. Plaid + No Job = No money for "flowers" for his "flower vase" Offers some flippin' sweet deals to members cash only....hmmmm somethings Phishy!
 
Oh man. :( I just send them an email suggesting they post the serial numbers of the stolen goods on their site right away, don't know if it will help but might.

It's bad everywhere. I saw one kid post, "around here we call it bash and nick, try to find a place to run my nitro without thugs beating us up and stealing our rides."
 
My LHS was hit like that too not to long ago. They broke in the back door and made off with several new trucks and even stole a few customers cars/trucks that were there for repairs.
 
Man if you guy's keep pitchin poop to plaid or implying anything he's gonna turn pissy quick

From what I've found, people only get pissy if they have something to hide.




Plaid did you ship my revo yet?
 
Nothing worse than a theif! I don't know that our LHS has ever been hit however. We live in the boonies out here. RC is not real popular. I guess out in Cali where it is like the meca for RC things are different. I hope they catch the suckers that did this.

Sadly, it happens all the time. The LHS's here get hit all the time. I truely wish the scumbags that did this get caught, and get their toes fed to a gator.
 
A thief is a real low-life. Get out and work for it! Hope they catch them.

Had a guy move in across from me that was making a career out of thieving. I'm lucky he didn't get in my house and he is lucky I didn't catch him. He broke into one old guy's house 3 times because he had pain pills.

We have had some trouble at the shop too. We're inside working to pay for our stuff, some butthead outside trying to take it from you.
That bites!
 
You hit the nail on the head digger my friend. The freakin theives make things that much harder on the folks like us that work their rear end off to afford the nice things we have. I hope they catch those bastards!

yeah they got hit like a week or two before as well....I've seen too many thugs in there to know it was going to happen sooner or later....unfortunately the hobby (here anyway) does attract too many unsavory drug dealer types that don't give a poop how much it costs (as long as they still have money in there pockets)...I've seen some just absolutely stupidly retarded claims made from some of these guys right to my face and I just say "wow that sounds cool"....I mean like I run 60% nitro in my road car type claims.....and if you say they're wrong it turns into stupid poop......Lifes too short to argue stupidity right??....anyway I've probably seen the guys who did it in the shop sometime scoping it out......and yes I agree they should be castrated and hung from their entrails cause now they won't be so easy for me to get good deals for a while.....LOL
