thoughts on newegg, UPS, and car thieves

[bryanW1995]

So here's the scenario:

As most of you know, I bought a gtx 460 - 768mb the other day from chief value. CV is a subsidiary of newegg, so of course they have badass UPS free 3 day shipping. Well, my car dealership happens to be one of the hubs that ups uses in san antonio to park their trucks at night. Early this morning, probably an hour before my gtx 460 was going to go out for delivery by the ups guys at my store (don't ask me why I don't just have them give me the stuff directly), some asshole tried to break through my gate. Fortunately, the gate was stronger than the attempted criminal's vehicle, though it was a pita to open it after all the damage. A lesser man might think that said criminal wanted to steal new ram trucks, right? However, my scientific mind has deduced that this nefarious individual KNEW that I bought the gtx 460, he KNEW that my company hosts UPS trucks at night, and he KNEW that the card would be here early this morning.

I must therefore assume that one of you bastards is the culprit. Fess up now, as long as you fix my gate I won't press charges or anything. probably.

I assure you, MOST of us did not know, let alone care that you bought a gtx 460. Everything after that I ignored.

It was part of the lame joke.

I heard rumors on the street that you had gotten the 460, but I dismissed them as pure talk. Guess they were real...

How can you call the person a car thief? According to your post, they didn't steal a car...At this point, all you can call them is gate crashers...

Pssh, you got sloppy seconds.

Darn caught red handed. I was trying to get another nvidia card for the bonfire this weekend. Just needed one more and if wasn't for those meddling kids and that pesky dog of theirs I would have gotten away with it!
