Cube Posted November 8, 2007 Share Posted November 8, 2007 I found out this morning that my (and my uni housemates') house was robbed last night. They took 3 laptops, 2 cameras, my Wii, DS, a load of games and some money. The police have been round, didn't find much and none of us have house insurance. I just don't know what to say.

Yup. All they could find out were that gloves were used. Ouch! I'm sorry to here that...Do you know how they got in? Lockpicked through the back door.

S.C.G Posted November 8, 2007 Share Posted November 8, 2007 I have no respect for people who thoughtlessly take stuff that isn't theirs with no thought towards what the belongings might mean to the people who own them, it's disgraceful and there is no excuse for it. I'm sorry to hear that this has happened Cube, I hope they catch whoever did this and make them compensate both you and your housemates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EchoDesiato Posted November 8, 2007 Share Posted November 8, 2007 Oh man, I'm so sorry for you! Such a shitty thing to happen, I hope they get caught and you get your stuff back. It's not very likely... but still. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cube Posted November 8, 2007 Author Share Posted November 8, 2007 Only 8 games were taken. I don't have a huge amount of time to play my older games, so I'm off to GameStation with everything but Twilight Princess, Wind Waker, Zelda CE, Excite Truck and Table Tennis (as the last is a game to review, and MP3 was taken). They can't do much good on their own, anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Platty Posted November 8, 2007 Share Posted November 8, 2007 Oh damn man sorry to hear that. After a good night at the Guitar Hero 3 launch party aswell. Scumbags. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Stefkov Posted November 8, 2007 Share Posted November 8, 2007 Yup. All they could find out were that gloves were used. You know what kind of gloves. Can they not get the fingerprints from inside the glove? Like go all CSI. Sorry to hear that though. How you gonna get anything back, you say you had no insurance so..I can't even think what I would do in that situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rokhed00 Posted November 8, 2007 Share Posted November 8, 2007 Shit happens, don't know why you even bothered calling the police, they'll never catch who did it or get your stuff back, the only reason to call the police in such a situation would be for the insurance, but as you don't have any I don't know why you bothered.

flameboy Posted November 8, 2007 Share Posted November 8, 2007 Sorry to hear that mate. Must really suck...All I can recommend is to get insurance next time, must be gut wrenching selling your game collection... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshmellow Posted November 8, 2007 Share Posted November 8, 2007 Damn Cube that really sucks. I hope the police find the guy(s) and you get all your stuff back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fierce_LiNk Posted November 8, 2007 Share Posted November 8, 2007 Sorry to hear about that, mate. That's awful, being forced to give away your games, as well. Did they go into each bedroom, or was all that in the living room? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A few people had uni essays (as in 30% of a module) due in the next day on their computers (backed up on USB drives which were taken). So the police were needed for them to get a time extension. That's awful, being forced to give away your games, as well. Did they go into each bedroom, or was all that in the living room? They raided every room, and took what they though was worth a lot and was of a decent size (my PC/Monitor is fine). Anyway, I'll be getting a new Wii on Tuesday/Wednesday from the money I got from most of the games that were left (which I wouldn't play much anyway). It still sucks big time.

Rummy Posted November 8, 2007 Share Posted November 8, 2007 That is so sucky, I'd go totally mental if I got robbed. Though I also feel like being the annoying voice of reason and saying that you guys should have had some insurance. Really sorry to hear about that.

Charlie Posted November 8, 2007 Share Posted November 8, 2007 That's absolutely terrible. Have you checked with your Landlord to see if they have any generic house/contents insurance for the whole building? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gaggle64 Posted November 8, 2007 Share Posted November 8, 2007 Damn, just really bad luck there. Sounds like you got done by pros with the gloves and lock pick and everything. Your probably not the first, or the last. Just gotta hope for the best that the cops manage to nab the bastards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
