Sorry to hear about this Scott...really a shame. Just sucks that there are bad people out there that don't work hard enough for want they want in life and then instead take advantage of others good fortune...

Re: I've been robbed!!!!!!!
 
Were your smokes the only thing tha was stolen from this- "lounge" or whatever it is? I'm unclear about exactly what it was, who had access to it, etc. Could a party have thought the cigars were there for the taking as part of the rental of the hall? Seems to me that SOMEONE should be able to do a little detective work and discover at least to some degree what happened here. It sure is a sad state of affairs when people take what isn't theirs, but I feel that you could at least be able to narrow it down a bit. As everyone said, this sucks big time and hopefully you will be remunirated in some form for the loss. The person who rented the "lounge" should be held responsibe to some degree for not vetting those that used the space. It breaks my heart to read this, brother!

Trust me, I know we all want to feel that we can trust our fellow man.

Give it some time, that feeling will pass :)

:tpd: The whole situation blows. Maybe its the cop in me but i long ago lost trust in most people. Hell i keep my humidor locked all the time and its in my basement.

One of the best posts in this thread. Wise words, Peter.

Sucks to have something taken from you. Definitely could have been worse though.

Sevans, I'm sorry to hear about your losses man.

There are very few things in life worse than a thief.

Terrible news, Scott. Hopefully all is righted. I really like the idea of putting up a flier or something asking for the return of the cigars.

True, they could have carted the whole humidor out.
Sorry for the loss, but like it was said...it could have been way worse.

Well, they did leave the ghurkas. That's worse than stealing them.

That's horrible. I don't know how someone would be able to sleep at night robbing from anyone, much less someone who is already doing them a favor and being generous.

Hope u find the culprit

Nothing yet. Wound up getting into a fight with the other guy who I set the lounge up with. He was acting kinda weird and super defensive. He got all upset because he thought I was accusing him. Wound up pulling all my stuff out of the lounge. Just gonna make my own basement man cave now.

Someone who gets that upset over questioning raises some red flags. You could always get super sleuth on them with a motion activated aimed at the Humidor. A cam with a 16gig micro SD shouldn't run you more than 75 bucks plus it has infinite uses.

If it wasnt him that did it, then he should be concerned because anyone doing that with your cigars will end up doing something else to the clubhouse and/or other members property.:mad:

Re: I've been robbed!!!!!!!
 
I was thinking about this, Scott. It looks like a textbook example of when friend/someone close steals. They had something specific in mind, knew where to find it, knew how to avoid detection, and knew when to strike. They also only took cigars. Not anything else. I'm also guessing nothing else appears broken/damaged. If it were a random grab, they would not have spent time with grabbing specific cigars. They would've grabbed as much as they could, and probably reached for bundles to maximize the amount of property stolen. The door to the humi would've probably been wide open too.

To me it looks like someone close took advantage of you.

Sucks, as I've had that happen to me. Not with cigars, but other property. I did catch the guilty party. I was riding in a car with him, he had to slam on the brakes for some reason, and my property slid out from under the passenger seat, and hit the back of my feet. I did not get physical with him, but the loss of my respect towards him was punishment enough. He has avoided me ever since, and that was about 10 years ago.

Got a lead....Dani's sister has a psychotic ex boyfriend. He apparently was just bragging to a mutual friend about all the sweet cigars he just got......including a bunch of cubans.

Lol...I appreciate the willingness to commit serious levels of violence on my behalf. Either you guys actually like me or you just really like to hurt complete strangers. :) I'm gonna go with option 1 because option 2 is a little worrisome.

I think a suitable punishment would be forced smoking. Get the good stuff back and force him to smoke a 5 pack of Ghurkas. The big ones.
