[@HeySpanky]

Ive been a police officer for 10 years and Ill start by saying its NOT that we dont care or that we “have bigger fish to fry”. The problem is the court system. Imagine spending hours, days, weeks of your life investigating your shop burglars. Finally a suspect is found and arrested. Court system just lets them right back out to reoffend for the Xth time. They either serve no jail or likely less time than you did investigating. Honestly its just a feeling of defeat. Wanting to help people but all the time upper command or the courts our yanking the chain back!

It’s awesome to see Retro Rick back in the podcast studio, wait a minute…that’s not Rick! That’s his twin! 🤔 😂

[@CrawlingPanther]

I mean let's be honest there are always going to be sketchy people anywhere valuable merchandise is. Doesn't matter if it's online or physical stores: people will find ways to cheat and steal.

[@thepickinpreacher]

sickening! This week at SEGE multiple vendors had stuff stolen. This stuff is disgusting man.

[@ryandann9362]

I always think that youtubers who show their collections are putting targets on their backs for being robbed. It's definitely putting the likelihood of it happening in the higher percentage versus a non youtuber. I don't tell anyone about my collection. If there's company or random people at my house I shut the room off.

[@mntngr346]

I don’t even trust my own family. I have an aunt and her little gremlins that I would not trust inside my house. Bedroom and collection both keyed doors for when guest are over.

[@Gamevet]

We lived in an apartment complex back in 2002. My wife would always call the management office over simple repairs that I could do myself. I told her to quite calling them, because the maintenance staff aren't people you can trust. The apartment next door was being cleaned up for the next tenant, and I was out of town at the time. My feeling was that a member of the maintenance staff had seen my gaming collection and they'd grabbed a key to our apartment to steal my PlayStation, Dreamcast and N64 games and consoles. They didn't steal jewelry, stereo equipment or anything but those videogames. They broke a glass window and supposedly climbed over a cheap desk that should have fell apart, had someone climbed over it. We ended up buying a house less than a year later.

[@deadmandriving3710]

I think if a sheep wore a wolf as his clothes, he would look pretty dang cool.

@@DemoKKKrapsFoundedKKK law enforcement is governed by the state and local government so I wouldn’t blame them. The state is ran bad

[@DemoKKKrapsFoundedKKK]

@@eduardorodriguez7689 they are all to blame law enforcement aswell! They are breaking their oath and there’s no point you should even have law enforcement in LA when they aren’t even doing their job cuz they supposably can’t cuz they passed some stupid communist law prohibiting them from doing anything. But let’s justify it and blame it on no one.

[@Maxquaza]

If the locks were made of Gallium than a basic plumbers torch can get through it under a minute. It's worth researching the types of locks you've got. Certain metals are much tougher to melt and require torches that create a lot of noise.

Man, it's stuff like this that makes me just want to maintain selling online. Been thinking about opening up a store where I am for a while now. A lot of people online think selling video games in a more professional manner is easy. They really have no idea. Keep doing what you guys do!

[@mark_devastation]

irony = riff is the master mind

[@realsteel7260]

Elliot always has been a real one!!

[@mikes062]

I work in retail and the spider wraps don’t work, people just figure out how to get them off and when we think we see someone stealing we’re told the most we can do is greet them and notify our loss prevention, the company looks at it basically as the stuff someone is stealing is far less cost than the cost of a lawsuit of an employee getting shot or whatever.

wouldnt that be loud?

[@RetroPickers]

Dang man, it sucks that there are people out there that are willing to ruin other people's livelihood over a few thousand dollars worth of games and gear

[@WavesNGames]

I worked at GameStop in highschool and we had an employee, a grown man, that stole GameCube discs from the drawer and took them to a different GameStop to trade in. It was like the 3rd or 4th trade in that the other store got suspicious of all these disc only games this guy was bringing in. He had mentioned he worked at our store so they contacted our manager who did an inventory and the dude was fired the same day.

[@mikes062]

Sounds like a really smart guy 🙄🙄

[@rocky-xp4we]

Feed him blue cheese 😂😂😂😂😂

[@retro_escape2969]

Elliot is such a cool cat 😃

[@missingno81]

Its on a busy street but not really a secure area. Try opening up near a donut shop or police station.

[@TranquilVision]

Yes, it's Jirard The Completionist.

[@kryptoniite_]

why wouldn't you file an insurance claim? insurance will want to see comps and you have price charting that lists all sold. if its due to not inventorying or tracking purchases/sales in the store, thats a management/ownership issue.

[@dtt117]

Fantastic podcast guys

[@fireandicellc]

Great video. Love ya keep bringing the great content

Look up Ryobi Bolt cutter. Relatively quiet and cuts deadbolts fairly easily.

That's a bummer! I used to go to that Echo Park location. Never knew that's why they closed that one. Never underestimate low life, scumbags.

Yeah like the Name of the Snake is Frank. He is the mascot of Hello I'm Gaming. You probably know the person who made that Gaming Channel better as Dankpods.

Justice must always be served and it REALLY sucks when it isn't, but as Christ followers we must be careful in how we talk about thieves (or anyone committing unjust acts.) They are children of God also, albeit very lost ones. Wanting revenge is a normal human emotion (I struggle with it also), but it is of the flesh, not of the Kingdom and we must always be striving for the Kingdom

11:15 what the hell Curtis the image of someone getting shot and killed over stealing is disgusting. that’s not equal justice. and murder isn’t the answer.

[@gilbertoarellano8525]

@@gilbertoarellano8525 im thinking it’s the part where the guys want criminals to be prosecuted for a crime. For some reason liberals think that’s a bad thing.

I've pinned riff as a right leaning individual for a long time. If you read the tea leaves from former episodes its quite clear imo. Could care less either way, I don't let politics dictate too much of my life unless you're a dishonest grifter who profits through lies, division, etc. I think Rick and Caleb might be as well.
