Dan82 Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 The HULK stole them! Seriously though, wtf, how has that damage to that door occurred?! And how is a long box or a person getting through that? I would not dream of storing my comics away from home, especially if were only missing a hundred or so issues for the full run of ASM! Sucks for that guy, hope he gets them back, the thieves and the comics! Raze and Stillirize85 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bird Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 I would think it’s someone the owner knows how did they choose that storage locker and the one near it seems OK Rune, newshane, Raze and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turnando Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 Never use a storage unit. I had one get burglarized and the cop who filled out the report told me he would never use a storage unit because they get broken into very frequently. In my case they had video, license plate, everything. I never got anything back. The officer working the case, when visited by me after I got impatient and drove to the police station and visited his desk, said he simply didn't have time for it as he was working cases for things like gang bangers who were driving stolen vehicles through the front of pawn shops to steal guns. Always have insurance, never use a storage unit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone that knew there was comics in that exact locker. Friend of the owner, acquaintance of the owner, the actual owner of the books, the owner of the storage facility...someone that knew that was the exact unit to target.

Robot Man Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 Man, that suks! They are "children's funny books". There must be a lot more "bigger crimes" to solve in Las Vegas... Looks like the police have what they need to run down this guy. Good luck with recovering your books and like has been said here, never store valuble items in a storage locker.

But, if they have all the evidence already, how much work is it really? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would still be nice to have their name on the books for the next time, when they get caught! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karl Liebl Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 It has been almost ten years now since the police affirmed they will not investigate property crimes here, since the recession. You are on your own. With my insurance company they will only insure collectables for up to 2k (for the whole collection) even though I have a 20k policy. Robbing a bank for 2k however is a totally different story (or try playing with the IRS!). You could get a personal article floater policy if your items have been professionally appraised but the cost is going to go through the roof. I am sure there is collectable insurance that is more reasonably priced but still not cheap, like having a classic car. Why don't Californians buy earthquake insurance, well it is super expensive! When I was young I had my apartment cleaned out, maybe 20k worth of stuff, cops filed a report. I called a month later and asked for status... we don't have any, good day Sir. I hate thieves. I wish there were debtors prisons again. Stillirize85 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kav Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 Seems that there's an untapped market for some kind of privately run police force that you could subscribe to. VICTIM OF THEFT, CHECK FRAUD. BURGLARIES ETC AND REGULAR COPS DONT HAVE TIME FOR YOU? HAVE ALL THE EVIDENCE ALREADY? THATS WHERE WE STEP IN!

Its $28 a month. Sounds about right. Old watch and class ring cost me about 75 bucks a year on PAF policy. I hope the guy had photos of his books at least to get some insurance money.
