The reason I dont have all the items because my ex roommate I found out was a druggie and started stealing my stuff but couldn't do anything as I was paying month to month rent with no lease and could not afford to move since I had no job,

Solution:

Beat the out of him (legality varies by state) however in PA, force may be used in order to reclaim property.....

I'm just... Befuddled by this, to be honest. Your roommate was stealing stuff from you, and yet you didn't find a way to catch him in the act and press charges? You didn't hide items that other people have given you the money for, and then he, knowing the value of games and such, took them and sold them? And how many times did you smash him in the face with a Pokedex to make him see the error of his ways?

Well, once I found out what happened I moved all my good stuff to my friends house but he had already stolen most of the lowball stuff and my stuff. You can't press charges or sue someone that always locked up. I finally moved out and the morning I left he was getting locked up again and I told the cops just throw away the keys. I went to check his room and all my stuff was gone but it looked like a druggies room.

Yes I handled the situation bad and could have prevented it maybe but What happened happened and Im trying to fix it from here.

PS Im not a fighter, dude it stalked and scared the shot out of me.

ok I am confused. so you are saying that your druggie room mate stole alot of your stuff, including the remaining lowball items? was this before or after you lost your wallet/had it stolen at the store? and why not just come out as soon as you could saying the packages got stolen and you would refund as soon as possible? I don't get it, and I am not trying to rag on ya for having hard times. but surely you could have found a way to let these people know that their items were gone rather then occasionally pop up and say the items will be shipped out.

and you most certainly CAN press charges against someone who is in and out of jail. the process of paying back what they owe is called restitution. even if you couldn't prove that he had taken all your stuff, making a police report would have worked in your interest if in fact those items showed up at a pawn shop for example (went throught his shit in august and the police who I talked to just last month said the case is still under investigation), which it seems you are eluding to have done.

look, shit happens. to everyone, and most time of time when it hits hard it hits bad as well. I hope that you can resolve it the way it needs to be resolved. so good luck with that one.

I wish there was a somethingawful psyduck emoticon on this forum, I don't even know.

I am mostly in the I am thinking this story is a bit incredulous but as long as I get my money back IDC.

I do not like how he lied and posted shipped to my status when he obviously did not ship it.

Thats dishonest.

Erm...is it a bad thing I *COMPLETELY* forgot about this? Meh...it's $6...if I get it back, great (I can use it...my favorite beef sandwiches at a local sandwich shop are $6 each :P ).

Got my refund. Thanks. Still I would have loved to get the game.

I'm still waiting.

Refund received. No hard feelings, man .

I'm glad to see a fellow CAG back on his feet and making things right.

Has everyone been issued a refund? If so adriley, PM me and I will send you the game I need to send. I just wanted to make sure everyone was taken care of first.

Still have to ship a few things and then i will PM you.

Hoping I will get the game I paid for.
