Off with thier friggen hands I say!! I hope you get your gear back, or at least hoping you have insurance mate. Those lowlife scumbags deserve whatever they get... This is something that really makes me angry, what right do people think they have to be in somebody elses house?!?!

Pity you didnt catch them, I'd dearly love to catch somebody in the act of ripping off anything from anyone. They'd be having a few accidents until the cops showed up.

[SDK]

Gutted, would have taken them a while to shift 29 models carefully. Plenty of guys here will keep an eye out.
Good luck & let us know how you go.

[Oh Five]

Sorry to hear Peter, I cringe every time i see posts like this, I know I would be absolutely shattered if that happened to me. My sisters house got broken into years ago and apart from the inconvenience, knowing someone went through ones personal stuff is very sickening. I hope all works out for you and your family.

And dont we all agree BUT the law is an ass - look at this story about the most heinous of crimes

"18/06/09 - A FATHER who bashed a man caught molesting his son, 10, is facing a prison sentence, while the boy's attacker walks free.

In a highly unusual case, Shane Thomas Davidson was spared jail despite pleading guilty to molesting the boy on State Of Origin night last year.

Judge Ian Dearden told Beenleigh District Court the sentence was reduced because the young victim's father had wrongly taken action into his own hands and badly beaten Davidson.

"There is no place in our community for a vigilante approach," he said.

Davidson was sentenced on Monday to a nine-month intensive corrections order.

The boy's father is awaiting trial on one count of grievous bodily harm, which carries a maximum penalty of life imprisonment.

Today, the father's brother told Radio 4BC's Greg Carey that his sibling snapped after the boy repeated his claim that he had been molested to his mother and then to friends from across the street.

"My brother just lost it then; he dragged him (the sex offender) outside", the brother said.

He said he arrived at the scene to discover "my brother in handcuffs sitting in the back of a police car".

He said it was up to the public to decided whether the pedophile had suffered enough for his crime.

The brother said the pedophile's abuse of his nephew had "absolutely put a wedge in all of our hearts".

Child safety campaigner Hetty Johnston yesterday slammed the sentence for Davidson.

"In this case, they've got it woefully wrong," she said. "What the offender did was totally unnatural."

In handing down his sentence on Monday, Justice Dearden said adult offenders who committed sex offences against children must serve actual jail time – unless exceptional circumstances were found to exist.

"This is one of those rare and exceptional cases," he said. "When an individual takes the matter of punishment into their own hands, the offence committed by the person may be far, far more serious and, therefore, have far more serious consequences then the original offence."

The court was told Davidson was at the child's house at Eagleby in June last year to watch the State of Origin match with the boy's father and a few other people.

After the game, Davidson went into the boy's bedroom and began massaging the child's penis under his clothes.

When the boy woke up, Davidson asked the boy to show him his penis and offered to do the same.

The child refused and went to tell his father what happened.

The man then attacked Davidson, dragging him outside, throwing him on to a concrete path where he struck his head and repeatedly kicking him.

Davidson later underwent extensive facial surgery in the Princess Alexandra Hospital.

Yesterday Davidson told The Courier-Mail he regretted what he had done but didn't think it was something he should go to jail for."

I know its off subject a little but THE LAW IS AN ASS

Hope your insurance pays what you need to replace your collection and other goods.
The last thing you need is for the coppers to find some of your gear or it will be taken into evidence and used in court and you may never see it again anyway. Thats my experience anyway.

I remember back in the very late "80's at Bathurst a couple of guys were caught looting tents & campsites in the Bathurst paddock area one night.

Well they were caught & a number of blokes gave them a ripe old hiding and dragged them up to the gate checkpoint where the police were called. Police arrived & were unable to them away until the medicos arrived.

Guarantee they've never considered doing the same again since.

People take the law into their own hands for a several reasons, a snap of rage plus the certainty that there is some justice then & there.

I compare this example to where we have heard of looters in disaster areas. In some parts of the world they are shot in sight & paperwork worried about later.

Off topic but good luck with an outcome on this one.

[fatty]

Bugger me. Looks like they new whwt they wanted and what were worth something. I know what its like to have someone go through your personal stuff. Good luck.

[pitcrew]

Sorry to hear mate :(. Hope all works out for you.
This send shivers up my spine.
Cheers

[fatty]

So sorry to here this VXR125, makes me angry really, Mick how did they swipe it at a driver signing?

[spiderken17]

Damn shame mate, we will all keep an eye out. I dont think a lot like that (even seperate) will escape all of us on ebay.

[brad]

sorry to hear mate, hope insurance will cover it?

[Oh Five]

, I had a couple of my cars swiped at a driver signing a couple of years ago

How'd that happen Mick?

I remember at Oran Park a guy with his young daughter had a shipload of models and i had a few to get signed, we were waiting for Skaifey and he noticed someone else he needed so i offered to mind his while he got the other one done. I could've quite easily taken off!!

[smokey_dj]

so sorry to hear about that mate i almost ended up meeting you this morning as well you walked out as i walked in down at mal's shop

[8hype]

sorry to hear buddy.that is screwed up.

[Andrew]

This type of thing makes me so angry. I hope that insurance covers it and then that the police get them. Then once the police get them you find out who they are......

[singer]

In my experience, even when or if you find out "who they are" the Nanny State protects the low life scumbags.

My home was Robbed & the Police said that they knew who the culprits were however their hands were tied by orders from above:mad:

& the Insurance Co are no better than the thieves:rolleyes: as they will try every way possible to avoid a payout & if they can't, the next time your policy comes up for renewal they place an unreasonable EXCESS against any claim which you may make:mad:

[SS Mick]

My cars got swiped at Eastern Creek while I was waitng for Murph to sign a couple of COA's .
A guy tapped me on the shoulder and asked if he could borrow my marker so I put my bag down and turned around to give it to him when I turned back around my bag was gone !!!! this all happened in less than a second. I lost my 1/18th,1/43,1/64 2003 - 2004 Bathurst Winner's. I have since replaced them all !!
