friends subs get stolen but are now on craigs.. what to do?

[skylineTT 10+ year member]

last week, me and a buddy installed 2 12" type Rs in my ported box and he had it in the jeep for a week until today when it got stolen earlier in the afternoon in a covered parking lot right by campus.. now we looked on craigslist and the exact subs, 12" D4 Type Rs, showed up for sale without a box for 300. guy left a number so my friend called and asked if he could throw a box in with them and the guy said yeah maybe, being all skeptical about it. how should we handle getting the equipment back? the guy said he lived right by campus but doesnt go to school.

set up a meeting, act like youre trying to by them. then smash face = profit

Bring receipt and some kind of serial number confirmation to match with the subs. And bring your friendly neighborhood police officer. See if they match; if they do, or he runs, the cop has your back.

call the police you ****ing retard... and have some sort of proof they are his... just because they are the same model doesn't mean shit. if you don't have serial numbers or something your friend can't prove they are his and he is ****ed...

OR... just have him meet you guys somewhere, then beat his *** and take them back...

OR... thank him for taking that shit off your buddies hands.

Lots of people have type r's. Unless the guy brings them in your friends box then theres no way to really tell if theyre his.

that guy would be stupid if he posted an ad on craigslist for the subs he jacked that same day!

Thieves usually aren't the smartest people around... I had someone try to sell me a deck that was stolen out of my car... I WAS IN MY CAR WHEN HE TRIED TO SELL IT TO ME THE NEXT DAY! And it's not like it was a regular daily driver or anything, had a full body kit, bright *** metallic silver paint, 17" Konigs, etc.... turns out he was a meth head and had felony warrants but still...

Best of luck with getting it back.

Moral: Don't bump near where you park, frequent. Hide your sh!t.

Still sorry to hear it.

dont text/call because he will probably get scared and nobody will ever see them.

DO NOT post that ad on here... some ******* will more than likely tell him it is a setup if you do... this forum is full of assholes...
