Comic theft 10 10

[blazingbob]

Please save me the why are you keeping comics in storage unit posts.  I'm really beyond upset right now.

I had 26 magazine boxes of Raw Silver/Bronze age, box of Gold keys stolen from one of my storerooms.

My last visit was 2/1,  could have been any day up until 2 o'clock this after.

All raw,  all graded, priced with my price stickers in upper left corner. 

I do not have a list yet.  I'm literally putting it out there if anybody in NY, NJ or Connecticut is being offered magazine boxes of raws they might be mine.

Boxes are coded,  JB1-JB3,  ZB831-4,    etc,  MM1-4,  CHD1-2,  Gold Key.

I will take care of anyone that can help get me this inventory back.

I am currently work on a list,   

 

[Dr. Balls]

Good luck. May the perpetrators end up on the wrong side of a Slayer video.

So sorry, Bob...but maybe everyone should notify their friends and local stores. NJ and Ct are not very big, they could be elsewhere.

[fast eddie]

I'll keep my eyes out for them!

[comicparadox]

Very sorry to learn of this. 

[Jesse-Lee]

Ugh, I'm sorry, that's awful. Any chance of cameras at the storage site?

 

Edited to add: Also, not quite sure why there are laughing emojis in this thread, this is pretty far from funny.

There are security camera's on the front and rear entrances,  they have my last date of entry and they will be reviewing footage from 2/1 through 2/7 2 PM to see if somebody was exiting with my inventory. 

They have to have security codes to get into the facility so if there is somebody exiting I'm sure they can figure out who got in.  

There are not security camera's inside the building which I was not aware of.  This is not an old storage unit facility.    

I will now be looking for a more secure location and moving out of this facility to find one that has security cameras within the building.

This is a Public storage,  not some small out in the middle of no where facility.   

As far as the laughing emoji goes I'm not sure what is funny about this either.

Sorry to hear about this. Will definitely keep my eyes open if something pops up here in Michigan. 

[Cobbledclam]

I’ve told a bunch of people out on the west coast. As you know some of these punk thief’s have cronies that they ship to and they fence the stolen goods all over the country. Get the list posted ASAP to know what we have be on the lookout for.

Bob, sorry to hear about this.

Do you know how they got into your unit?

Cut a lock?  Break through a side wall from an adjoining unit?

 

[grebal]

This sucks man.

Sound like inside job/inside help. What're the odds, over 75% that's how you got targeted?

[Mmanick]

Yeah this definitely sounds like an inside job to me. Maybe someone watching every time you came in. An employee who knows some shady people. Get a list out and definitely check places like craigslist, local shops, ebay , Facebook marketplace etc... Hope these come back to you. Was the police department any help ?

[silverseeker]

Bob, I'm so sorry to hear about this, and hope you're able to get all your books back quickly and safely.

[rumrunner71]

That is so awful. I'm really sorry, and I hope that someone can provide some help tracking them down.

box of Gold keys

Which ones ? Always easier to track and identify than SA Marvel keys.

Sorry to hear of your loss, hopefully temporary. Anyone who has been a victim of burglary knows how low down someone has to be to do this. It’s not just what you lose, but also, frequently not knowing the full extent of that loss. It’s a kind of personal violation. Many years have passed since suffering my one break in and theft, and it still makes me angry. Good luck to you, Bob.

[Cat]

Sorry to hear about this, Bob. Good luck in retrieving any of this stolen inventory. 

[ThothAmon]

Very sorry to hear about this. Truly awful. I’m in W CT and will report the theft to my local comic book shop Cave Comics. 

[fast eddie]

Certainly nothing funny about the theft of your livelihood,,,,,,,, hope for the best of outcomes for you Bob.

[SpideyFein]

I’m sorry to hear about this Bob. I will definitely ask around and keep you posted. Please update the thread when you compile the list.
