PLEASE HELP - MINIS STOLEN SITUATION

Post by uatu13 »

Hey, this is sort of a weird situation, but my brother apparently thought it was cool to break into my apartment, and steal about $400 of my miniatures. I've gotten most of them back from him, but things may still be missing. Basically I'm putting this post up to see if anyone has traded anything or bought anything from my brother, Scott Wille (screen name northoceanbeach)? I know I'm missing at least 15-20 metal black templar shoulder pads, but I'm sure there's more. I really appreciate any help you can provide, and I'll be sure to make sure you're whole if anything is returned. Thanks.

Although it would probably be more appropriate in one of the discussion forums, it'll get more exposure here.
It's definitely not a trade ad, though, so I moved it from the trade forum.

Jeff, your brother was banned from here, as you know. If he traded here, he didn't do so as NorthOceanBeach or the ID he later joined under - Sal the mander. Both were banned in 2009.

What information can you share with us? His current address? What's missing? his email address?
Do you KNOW he brought them here, or are you guessing?

Does he have any known email addresses you can share with me? Aliases?

I think what this situation needs is some imagination.

Hey Eric, thanks for the help. I wasn't quite sure where to post, and was hoping to possibly get someone that he traded with or something. As of now I have no knowledge that he brought anything he took from me here, but I know he had traded here before, so I thought I should cover by bases.

So far I've gotten most of it back (I think), though it's hard to know what's missing completely. He apparently not only went into my game room, but also rooted around in my closet where I keep the unbuilt stuff and took things there. I'm hoping if there is some stuff he traded or sold away to people in town I can find the rest

I just decided to play Marines today, and noticed everything on the shelf was all moved around and out of order. Then I started noticing things like missing some flamer marines, etc. At first I thought I had left them at my local shop, checked there, and called a few people thinking maybe they had borrowed them and forgot to return them or something. Then someone suggested he may have taken them (he's done it in the past). When I went into his place not only were the few things I knew I was missing there, but he apparently just had a shopping spree with my stuff. He even went so far as to rip the black templar shoulder pads off my marines, prime them, and started painting them!

The creepy thing about the whole situation is that he won't admit he took the stuff and insists he bought/traded for it, even though what he had matched exactly what I was missing. Really weird.

Unfortunately he's currently living in the same house as me (address 1726 Estate Dr Eugene, OR 97405). I have a separate living space than him that I keep locked, but somehow he managed to get in anyways. So far I've managed to get the following stuff back from his space, but I'm not sure what else could be missing (I have a pretty big collection):

1 Command Squad Marine with Power Sword (converted to be his Vulcan model)
12 Bolter Marines
2 Flamer Marines
2 Metal Multi-Melta Marines
1 Multi-Melta Attack Bike
4 Marine Bikes (1 w/ melta gun)
10 Screamers Of Tzeentch
1 CSM Daemon Prince with GD Of Tzeentch Wings
23 Dwarf Iron Breaker Shields
18 OOP Fantasy Familiars

I know right now he's actively building a Salamander's list for himself (hence the marine stuff he took from me), and thought he may have come here to try to get stuff. Just a long shot though :-|
