A quick note to the low life muggerscum who decided to break into my house today. Fuck you, you decided to take a whole lot of modern consoles but left all my neo games on their shelves. You trashed my house yet came away with a few hundred dollars worth of shite. Please get cancer. Has this happened to anyone else?

woha, sorry to hear this man. But it seems you've been way lucky. If they only stole the more current stuff you might be able to replace a large part of it. Hope you have insurance...

Don't let people in your house and don't take pictures. That's the best precaution to take.

I don't think this is the first instance hearing about thieves with terrible taste.

Keep in mind that burglars have the habit to come back. They know your place now and maybe they left your neo collection as it was harder/heavier to move out. Make sure to secure your house and be on the lookout in the near future. Don't get dogs for the sole purpose of house security as they will not stop a burglary, maybe repeal a crackhead but that is it.
I am sorry for what happened I myself have been a victim of house break in and the feeling is dreadful.

At least no one was hurt. Stuff can be replaced, people cannot.

You've got to be really desperate or stupid to break into someone's house here. Everyone is armed to the teeth, the neighborhood is gated, there are cameras everywhere, and Florida is not criminal-friendly in terms of sentencing. My alarm went off once accidentally and the police were here in 5 minutes.

We had a break in years ago, they only had time to grab my boom box. A neighbor saw 4 kids and called the police since she was too old to do anything else.

I'm sorry but at least no one you care about got hurt.

Funny thing, when I moved into a house in the honest to god hood in Georgia, there were a couple of 'neighbors' watching me moving all the stuff from the U-Haul. When I was done, I took a shower, threw on shorts and a tee shirt, and went outside. It was December and roughly 30 degrees. I was used to being in the actual cold having come from Kansas in the middle of a blizzard so it wasn't bad. I sat on the steps with a 1980's Sanyo boombox, blared some Dimmu Borgir and started to clean these matching .45's I got in Iraq. Took my time. After about an hour and a bunch of talking that I couldn't understand, they left. No one ever fucked with me or my wife and we were there for a year. My wife did pull a gun on some hoodrat at the corner store once though...

I think what I'm trying to say is if people think you're bat shit crazy, it's a little less likely they'll fuck with your stuff. Sorry for your loss, man. If you have insurance, get the police report and file that shit. I'm sure people on here have what you lost and may just be willing to part ways with it.

And make sure you don't live in the state Cdmann lives in. After what happened to his shit which has been held by the police for years I'd seriously get a lawyer.

I used to run a second hand videogame shop.
Got robbed once. They took even broken PS2's and Xbox's by that time ( 2007 ).

They stole me cash, hundreds of games, consoles and even a Tommy Hilfiger sports shirt.
They left the AES and Snes in their place.

I live in a town where there's below 150K inahbitants.
Either they knew they were gonna get caught by selling an AES or they were too dumb too leave it.
Can't think of a third option...

They probably thought they were vhs tapes. If you're dumb enough to break into someone's house, you probably don't know the value of a 20 year old game system. However, most lowlifes know what a 360 or ps3 look like.

The good thing about AES/MVS carts is they can camouflage themselves as VHS tapes. Nobody wants those.

Thanks guys for all the advice and support. Luckily we have insurance so everything can be replaced. We were more worried about our cats. Luckily they are fine.

Sorry to hear that, but at least the neo stuff stayed, robber probably thought the aes was somekind of odd laserdisc or vhs player.

Haha, I was thinking the same too.

I stupidly had a full SVC Chaos MVS kit mailed to my house instead of my work in the dead of summer (when kids are out all the time). The sender didn't ask for delivery confirmation and the box was grabbed off my porch. I didn't even know about it until a neighbor brought over the torn up box addressed to me with all of the kit contents intact... except the cart. I looked around in dumpsters in the neighborhood for the next hour but never found it. Very strange.
