skybytch 273 #4 March 10, 2004 QuoteI would be checking pawn shops first. That's been suggested to him. But the thief just might be stupid enough to bring it to a dz and try to sell it... we can hope anyway. Thieves should be beaten to a spreadable paste.

Aviatrr 0 #5 March 10, 2004 Maybe the thief will try and jump it and...well...maybe not such a good thing to hope for.. Shouldn't be too hard to spot that if somebody tries to sell it...not too many rig/canopy combos like that around(well, compared to rigs total).. I'll be over at Lake Wales this afternoon...I'll let 'em know in the gear shop there.. Mike Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aviatrr 0 #6 March 10, 2004 QuoteI would be checking pawn shops first Do pawn shops really buy skydiving gear? I would think that it's too specialized of an item, plus the people at the pawn shops wouldn't have a clue what they were looking at or how much it is worth..

Mike Well, unless they are idiots they know it is worth more than $50 and if someone was trying to pawn it stole it would be happy with there $50 so they can buy another rock.... _________________________________________ The Angel of Duh has spoke Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sunnydee123 0 #9 March 10, 2004 If this is the same guy I'm thinking about, I was there when he got back from the beach and called the police. That really sucks when someone visits our area and gets a bum deal like this! Dreams become reality, one choice at a time... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
