What a relief!!!

I guess you misunderstood me bro, I was just saying that it was a strange course of events, not that you were making it up...

Yeah, sorry bro, I haven't slept all night. It's a lot of money.

I was expecting a mid sized package yesterday at my box. Well, I checked the tracking number the day before and it said it was delivered to the customer, but in a town about 30mins away from my box?!?!?

I was very nervous about picking it up. So I woke up, skipped breakfast, cleaned house, gave money to a friend for bail...I was expecting the worst case scenario.

I drove to the area. It's a large mall-like parking lot with a huge supermarket, so there could be cops everywhere and I wouldn't spot them. I circled that parking lot for 40 fucking minutes.

I finally parked close by, facing the mailboxe place. As I'm about to cross the road, this white van pulls up right in front of me, passenger side facing me. Two men in the front yell out "Hey!"

I haven't picked up the package yet so I'm not freaking out, but I was already edgy.

The other guy looks at me, smiles and says "You wanna buy a stereo?"

I look in the back of there Van, there are about 10 stereos. I told them I was busy and wasn't interested.

Went in, and I'm relieved that the package was there. But now, I have to walk out with it.

I finally get to my car, throw the package on the backseat, turn around and there is a man holding a wallet at my window. He flips his wallet open. It's a "Sergant" police badge.

He starts yapping and at this point I'm not even listening since I was getting mentally ready not to say a word, thinking about which attorney to call...

Well, it turns out he was bitching because I was parked in a restricted zone, authorized parking only. I apoligized, I'm sorry officer, blah blah blah, and he let me go but only after talking to me for about 5mins about various things since he found me to be very respectful and nice.

I put on my safety belt and drove at 50km/h all the way.

thank godness you are ok....


i had all my used gear amps and about about 30-40 used syringes. am driving below speed limit and a cop was behind me and turned on his lights so i pulled over, and thank god he sped by me and turned onto the highway.....scared the shit out of me......i pitched the gear in a large dumpster and just about passed out in my car in the burger king drive theu

Wow, that may have been enough to "scare me straight", LOL.

Too bad about your "friend". He doesn't seem like he has anywhere to go though so I have no doubt you will track him down sooner or later. Give him an extra head-but for me .

 

[BigAndy69]

Nah, as long as I get my $ back, no point in beating his ass, don't need the cops looking for me or some kind of lawsuit.

Some friends get comfortable with one another, so when they decide to rip you off, they can't imagine you doing anything to them

I think he was planning on buying some gear with the money and then selling it...or using some of it to pay off some bills and then giving me back the rest sort of like a loan. He's always been a fuck up looking to make a quick buck, but I didn't expect this.

Definetely the wrong person for the job bro. You should have asked someone more trustworthy.
Im sorry about the situation.
Hopefully you get it back soon.

Well, I don't have that many friends who I talk to about steroids.

This guy is dumb
I know where he lives
I know everything about his family
All the places he frequents
Where he works

Most unlikely guy to rip me off. At least I thought.

What does that mean? I didn't sleep all night --- I can't think.

As in "It scared me so bad it made my butt pucker up"

 

[liftshard]

dude...your bail connection ripped you off?? Thank freakin god you DIDN'T end up in jail...it would have been no joke while you were rotting waiting for him to bail you out with money he obviously blew on dope to try to make a quick score.

I have had "friends" like this in the past and they freakin ALWAYS rip you off. Loaned one guy $1500 till the end of the month and he was holding $500 of yay I owned and the bastard ripped THAT off and sold it. I was about to have to kill him in front of his damned family, but we worked out a payment arrangement where I had to constantly hound him and eventually got all my money back after a freaking year. Never loan friends money, especially deadbeat ones. Put it into a lawyer retainer; at least THEY will return your phone call if you're in the klink or give it to your mom or something.

Thanks to those who clarified my "pucker factor" comment.

Pucker Factor definition: How tight your ass puckers up in a stressful situation usually rated on a scale of 1 to 10 with 10 being you car seat has been sucked straight up your ass and an ant couldn't find its way in either.

 

[psychedout]

I got nervous just reading that story.

Best of luck. Hopefully you get you $$$ back.
