    Ah, just ignore 'em. We all know it wasn't a very nice thing to say... let's not give them the attention/responses they're trying to provoke. Best to just laugh at how some people react and thank our lucky stars we wouldn't say (or probably even think) something like that ourselves. Everyone's entitled to their opinion, yep - but sometimes it's knowing when to keep schtum and when to speak out. I really don't think negative comments are warranted on this particular thread. We all sympathise (even though there are worse things happening in the world or with our own lives) and wish the OP every luck with future comps.

    Ain't worth the time of day... honestly.

    Smiles (and peace) all round :D

    Aw, it's such a horrible feeling to be burgled. Let's hope you win the items back.

    Knightowl th_sochildish.gif if you've been burgled too in the past then i'm sure you'll understand how gazzarh feels.
    Big thanks to all who contribute to the forums. Be lucky everyone and be safe!
  • make sure to check all of the pawn shops in the area, if you find them and can identify them, telltale scatches etc the police will be able to get them back for you and CCTV used to help ID the !!!!!!s. As much as these "people" like games, it's cold hard cash they need.... good luck.

    Yeah, you are absolutely right.
    If the OP can check the pawn shops within the next day or so then it will be fresh in anyone's memory too. Good thinking :D
    Thanks to everyone who posts comps, I love winning prizes big and small
