Christ, dude. Do I even have to say it?

This is the 2nd time you've accepted something of dubious origin. IIRC, the last time, you deleted half your posts...

PS: You know what I'm talking about.

I know Jon man... and actually... it's not the 2nd time... it's prob the ZILLIONTH time...

...The issue is... that it is commonly known, the pawn industry is subject to be used by a certain "clientale".... hence every item you buy... every pawn agreement you make is potentially stolen...

We just have to follow the rules set down and hope for the best...

PS.... What's your guess?:D

I'm not really into sticks as I prefer modded Saturn Neo pads to play Garou, etc. I was never a huge fan of those old-school MAS sticks, either.

What the hell...I'll go the "Ring" route and say...

...7 days...

If it were stolen then how would the seller or lendee or whatever have had the login password?

Easy... we've had cases where husbands, boyfreinds, wives, girlfriends, sons, daughters... etc etc... have pawned in someone elses stuff that they had access too...

It is actually more common than you think... PERFECT example is a case 2 years ago...

A guy brought in a lovely TV... we brought it... THEN the girlfriend comes in 2 days later and claims that he stole it from her and it belonged to her... and they had split up..

They lived in the SAME house at the time... so the Police confiscated the TV...

...Long story short... we managed to get pictures of them holding hands while walking up the streets and showed it to the Police... Rochdale is a SMALL town...

We got the TV back:D

PS. Turns out they wanted the cash... and then claim the Tv back as stolen:p.. hence... free MONIE'Z...

Long Story short lads... and pseudo lassies...

A customer put a Mac Mini on pawn... he subsequently lost it...

I tried to reset it... but the fookin coont had put an EFI password on it... 6 digits...

SO, I brought an EFI password haxxor... it basically just keeps pumping in codes until it finds the right one:D

OK... so i read the manual... it's gonna take upto 175 days:D (That's close to 6 months)...

I HATE being bummed over by a customer:D

My guess is 60 days, but you needn't enter me in the drawing. Hope it ends up being more like a week though!

Everyone is free to play... even nubz...

I just read ANOTHER set of instructions... A 6 digit code might take from 0 - 200 days:D

FFS:(

I'm guessing you already tried the most common/easy passwords? 123456, 111111, 666666, 999999, 000000, etc?

Or maybe your device automatically has some sort of algorithm rather than a linear traversal from 000000-999999?

Why not contact vanilla thunder and ask for advice.

Kenster is a busy man... I don't want to hassle him with petty stuffs tbh...

Wouldn't work.. it's the same as a bios password on a PC/Laptop... you need it to access the harddrive itself... hence, the HDD isn't the prob...
