NoMan Posted April 18, 2019 Share Posted April 18, 2019 Perhaps I need to re-read thread. Did crooks follow Our Hero from the con to his dinning spot and unattended car or did they just break into a random car and saw comics? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They didn't say, just that they broke into his car while he was eating. I am guessing they saw the boxes and decided to break in and see what they got. More of a crime of opportunity than planned I gather RockMyAmadeus 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RockMyAmadeus Posted April 18, 2019 Share Posted April 18, 2019 Oh, and by the way...this should be SOP, and I know many of you do this...but dealers: SCAN YOUR INVENTORY. If they're stolen, and cracked out, you will at least have markers to identify the books. Point Five and shortboxed 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JollyComics Posted April 18, 2019 Share Posted April 18, 2019 (edited) Stealing anything worth $100K is not a serious crime in California so the cops do nothing. I lived in California for five years from 1988 to 1993 and LA cops chased and arrested any petty thieves but not this time? It has to do with the lawyers? I heard it is so famous to get a lawsuit for anything nothing major in California so the cops do not want to deal the lawsuits? Pretty lame.
