Jen, the engagement ring was there along with a few other rings. I still had my sapphire band, and the other rings were ones I never wear for many different reasons (mainly because they are too big and get in the way with drawing and dog training). Simple is better for me now. The thieves took all my nice simple pieces with low mountings.
I am considering selling most of what's left.. I'd just keep the band thats on, my engagement ring, and my tanzanite. This has made me realize I don't care about the other rings at all. But I'm hesitant to sell them because I know I won't get half of what they're worth. Though I guess it doesn't matter, so long as I sold whats left for enough money that I could actually replace my camera! I feel so lost withotu my camera. Ashley keeps urging me to use hers... but I just CAN'T bring myself to use it. Its not the same. Its not MINE. Does that make sense? If nobody understands, thats ok, I freely admit I'm a nutjob! :o
I checked out the consignment shop today. They were closed (though not supposed to be) and the smell of pot coming from the basement nearly knocked me out. :eek: Peeking through the windows shows that its highly unlikely my stuff would be there. First, apparently this place has a habit of closing for no apparent reason (leading me to think the theives would never have had the ability to go in and sell my stuff to them) and secondly, it was all hippy-ish. My stuff is certainly NOT what their customers would be looking for.
In the meantime my new plan of attack for the camera fund is to ebay the everything in the house! Maybe I'll get a few bucks, and clean out a lot of junk! :p I just have to get everything together and photograph it.
I'd let the cops know about it - the smell of pot, anyway, and have 'em raid the place for drugs, if they do such a thing.Quote:

Yes, it's pathetic isn't it! Go after the minor crimes and let the big ones flourish. :rolleyes: It's like that everywhere!Quote:

OMG, I almost fell over when she called! Thank goodness my lovely digital phone service garbled up the call at that point because Ashley hung up in frustration and just sent them over to another local business!
Can you believe it if they actually came over... if they actually HAVE my stuff? I still haven't found a time when they're open to go look for my jewelry. You'd think they are open right now, wouldn't ya? Nope. Closed. :rolleyes:
i hope you find your stuff! what a terrible thing to go through! i'm glad Ashley didn't send them to your house!

Sorry this happened to you. I'm sure it was a scary and invasive experience. I hope you recover your stuff. Keeping my fingers crossed.
