There's only so much that one can reasonably be expected to do in this sort of situation, and seriously, hiring a private detective isn't one. This isn't someone's heirloom gold broach or anything. --- End quote --- This. I think Moviefan forgot to actually read the post. And did a private detective really get mentioned? Why should I incur that cost for someone else's mistake? Especially for something so low in monetary value - a PI's fee would already double the value of those games in the first hour. This isn't like a missed connection or something - they had months and then years where they could grab the games from me. If they won't take it home, then I can't be held accountable for that. --- Quote from: UncleBob on December 19, 2012, 11:47:20 AM ---I will say, just because they haven't made the effort to contact you to get them back, it doesn't mean they don't want them back. I loaned a copy of Pokémon Yellow to a co-worker who then moved to Florida. I still talk trash about him to this day. ;) Not really, but whenever he comes up in conversation, I usually end up making a comment about how he "stole" my game. He was a great guy and all and I don't really hold it against him, but I'll forever think of him as the Pokémon thief. =D --- End quote --- But did he try to return it to you continuously? Sounds like he borrowed it and then just held on to it. I've already gone through the steps to get the items back to these guys once. This post and the whole ordeal is me trying to go the extra mile. (again) ;) They're burning a hole in my shelf and a feel bad enough already about having them even though they failed to get them back from me when I brought it up... |
