If not you have NO CASE. Does not matter if it LOOKS like yours or is even kinda rare, you have to prove it is YOURS, as since it is in their possesion it is YOU thats has to prove ownership, not them.

But good luck, and hope you have the info from the part?

STOP TYPING IN CAPS YOU JACKASS. If he has pictures of his car AND OBVIOUSLY STILL HAS THE F!!!! TITLE AND IT MATCHES THE SERIAL NUMBER (UNLESS SCRAPED OFF WHICH WOULD BE VERY SUSPICOUS) HE WILL GET HIS CAR BACK. YOU ARE A COMPLETE AND TOTAL FRICKIN JACKASS

:thumbsdown:

He might have a bad argument, but there's nothing wrong with using caps as a form of emphasis.
Typing in caps is a form of YELLING. Italicizing words is the proper way to emphasize something without being so offensive, see?
 
This should be very easy for the cops to handle. I noticed the part is in Sac...probably better to let the cops handle it than go looking for "street justice". In real life the bad guys are often tougher than the good guys who are out looking for revenge.

The seller seems to allow pickups, so the cops can grab him then, and at least get the guy whole stole you car if its not him. If those are your taillights in his other auction, then it may already be stripped. The crappy thing about Sac is all the autowreckers in Rancho and Roseville. Maybe one of your VINs will show up there. I wouldn't be surprised if the pickup is around somewhere around Florin.

Needless to say the tickets were a month old by the time we got the letter so the car was long gone. Then, a few days after that, we got a notice saying that someone was arrested in Florida on an unrelated charge and he had our car in his possesion. By this time we'd already gotten a check and it was the insurance company's car, but it was still interesting to find out they caught someone with it. It was my wife's automatic Civic and I was driving it so I wasn't too broken up.

haha, civics are the number 1 stolen car in the country after all.....i find that not very suprising at all really. I knew someone who actually had his ENGINE stolen out of his car in the parking lot of his apartment complex overnight. Friggin ricers

Stop using caps! 😛

Ahahaha

lol that sucks, but at the same time, its so funny. When I was in plam springs with my family a few years back, our suburban got jacked. Damn and this was our vacation! Anyways, we had onstar with it, and they tracked it down. Then the cops had a stakeout. A lot of my stuff got jacked, but at least we got the car back.

I get full coverage on my cars no matter what. Sadly my 100 cd wallet w/ all real cds got stolen and they would not cover any of it. They only cover things are thare friggin bolted to the damn car. I couldnt believe it, I was screaming at my agent I was so damn pissed.
 
to get back at them I purposely put my POS car out in the hail and even used a hammer to make some larger marks and filed a claim for hail damage. Ended up getting a check for 600$ or something after 500$ deductible. Eat that insurance company you wanker suckers

Dude, I live near SacTo. (2 hour drive) I dunno what good I can do, since I don't think vigilante justice is called for here, but if you need some more local presence I can help.

Of course there are probably AT members who actually live in SacTo. 😛

This is why I copy all my CDs I bring in the car. (That and I usually want to make compilations) Stealing 100 backups puts me out a whole $10 in media.

However, you do know that you can get a tax deduction for stuff you lost, right? I was stoked when I found that out the year my car was broken into twice. It isn't exactly dollar for dollar, but it does make you happy when your tax return gets that much bigger.

Thank you for making us all accessories to insurance fraud. 😛

If you commit insurance fraud, you probably should think twice about bragging about it on a forum where you also post your name, city, and comcast email address, Anthony.

I don't think I even had a cd burner at the time. This was when I was 16 and now I am on my way to 23, couldnt afford one back then. I was at work at a busy department store and it happened right in the middle of the day, I was pretty suprised. Deductions mean s!!! to a teenager because your taxes are already deducted so much.

haha, well I wanted my money back and I hate when "full coverage" really means "kinda full coverage when we feel like it"

That is not where I am initially from...and actually my car got broken into here as well. Luckily I just got an alarm put in a few days before that and they just broke a few of my windows to spite me for having an alarm. Luckily glass replacement took care of it.

I'm sorry that the rest of the internet doesn't conform to your very specific rules of posting. There are so many unlearned savages out there who use bolding, CAPS and *other* means to emphasize words.

Also I'm sorry that you got sand in your vagina. 🙁

Intelligence has nothing to do with how paranoid a person is or isnt

But that's not the point. You could tick someone off and they now have a record of your name and home city. It shouldn't be too difficult to figure out what parties might be interested in reading your story. 😛

Actually I bolded, capitalized and itilisized the word just as a joke....anyway, I think it is fairly common knowledge that capitilization is used as yelling on the internet. Would you disagree?

With good reason. There are a few people here (not to count countless lurkers) that wouldn't hesitate to make life hell for you just for the fun of it. Sort of a hobby for them, I think.

Oh well, if the police shall come and arrest me for something I posted on an internet board, so be it!

Ahh, yeah. Until you are no longer a dependant it's very rare that itemized deductions amount to anything more than what you'd get by default. Though if your parents claim the theft since they likely bought a number of those CDs (100 CDs and 16 years old, I doubt you had worked long enough to earn them all by yourself) they'll get a lot of it back.

It's all moot of course, since this happened ages ago. Good to know in the future.
