Default Hershey Thief

My son Ben and I enjoyed meeting and doing business with many of you fellow Rennlisters.

We were disappointed to discover that some of our items were stolen right off of our table.

To the guy that stole them, I hope you realize that you not only stole from me but also from my 18 year old son, who recently had a Heart transplant and he was selling these items as a way of generating revenue as he is still in recovery and not able to work.

I will pray for you.

Awesome that you would pray for the SOB. I'd likely want to cave his skull with a hammer. You are good people.

RETRACTION!

When I got home from work today I told Ben that I had posted this info on the forums.

He said "I forgot to tell you that I found them".

I said "where and when?"

He said he found them when we were packing up to leave and I was off retrieving the car.

He said he forgot to tell me (ugh).

He said they were under the 968 mini champ display case.

This is really odd because we had the WG plates on the far right side of the table and the 6 car display was on the far left. Somebody, probably a kid as many of them wanted to play with the models, must have put them under there.

Anyway the story had a happy ending.

Please forgive me if I upset anybody over this.

At last year's event, I busted a thief stealing a $175 dollar jar of Zymol wax from that guy who sells detailing supplies. I saw him pick it up and look at it and I was watching in amazement that someone was actually going to pay $175 for a jar of wax. Then he dropped it to his side and curled it up in his hand. I knew this was looking bad and sure enough, he had planted a plastic bag on the ground and slowly backed out of the crowd and placed it in the bag and walked away. I pointed him out to the owner and he just went over to the guy, who was at another vendor's booth, and took it back from him. The guy was so nervous that he came back over and said, "I was going to buy that but I was just checking out something else." Yeah, right! Anywho, he ended up paying for it. Just wish I could've gotten a commission for the sale.
