Oh my God, the fucking car's been fucking stolen.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Oh no! Hope you had insurance! Time to look at some security systems or something, clearly some bad stuff going on in your neighbourhood.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago

Yes, thankfully. And since I'm moving in a few months, not worth the security unfortunately.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Oh no! That is awful!

Was there anything important in it? What sort of car was it?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

No, and an old Volvo 7. But since this is the third time the place has been hit in a fortnight I'm wishing it was May.

πŸ˜” So frustrating. I hope your day get better.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

Well no sign of the cops, and just got the word the other party intereted in the unit's raised the bid by $10k, so yeah.

Somewhere between shocked and frigging annoyed.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Oh no! You've had a run of bad luck lately πŸ˜•

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Holy crap! OMG that's Terrible

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Oh that sucks! I hope you’re doing ok

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Fucking hell, you need to win lotto one of these days to balance out your bad run. I really hope that other bidder backs off and the house comes through for you... Will you have another car available soon?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Other bidder is being aggressive so I'm sitting on things for the rest of the weekend.
My insurance includes a hire car and I'll see if my mechanic has a loaner or something for sale.
