A-Bon Posted March 26, 2014 Author Share Posted March 26, 2014 Where can one Australian guy go with a fuckton of limited-ass records? Nowhere. He's gotta be selling 'em. Check all public sites. 'Shipping From Australia' is a huge and obvious indicator. If you can pinpoint a time and date where they were taken, grill all employees who could have been there at that time, threaten with job loss. It's possible at the very least that one could rat out another. It sucks it has to come to something like that, but someone has taken your livelihood, really. i know... im trying to work out when with the police... we have noticed 4 companies we hired have used a number of "workers" that weren't on our list of people onsite ... the shittly thing here though is.. i kinda get the feeling the police dont see it as "important" enough and are just taking a relaxed stance towards it... it feels like my wife and i have to do all the asking and grilling of the workers...

HoneyFrosted Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 i know... im trying to work out when with the police... we have noticed 4 companies we hired have used a number of "workers" that weren't on our list of people onsite ... the shittly thing here though is.. i kinda get the feeling the police dont see it as "important" enough and are just taking a relaxed stance towards it... it feels like my wife and i have to do all the asking and grilling of the workers... I don't think they ever will. If you can, remind them that value of what was stolen approaches that of a car. and you take it very seriously. It probably won't help but it's the best you got. My condolences. If that happened to me I'd probably do what another guy said, call it quits, sell the rest and cut my losses. It'd be very hard to keep going. Some things are irreplaceable.

Im from Melbourne and there is close to nowhere you can BUY records, lot alone sell them. They will pop up online if thats their intention. Will keep an eye out for you. Ive got auto-search setup on eBay and discogs for lots of Australian bands, Silverchair being one of them (im guessing you had Diorama?)

museummouth Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 I really feel for you dude. This totally sucks . I really hope you can get them back. Keep an eye on tumblr and instagram too for pictures of it. Do you have any pictures of your collection or the rare items? Those can really help if the police are involved. Also if these pop up on ebay just bid them so you are guaranteed to win, and then you can get the sellers address and phone number. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I follow a stack of people on the interwebs like everyone here so will definitely keep my eyes out, especially the Silverchair as i dont really know the other bands too well.
