Hi Everyone, I had a brand new copy of Thin Red Line Games, Less Than 60 Miles, stolen off of my front steps today. If anyone should see someone selling from in Winnipeg, Canada (not a very big market) please let me know. Or for that matter just know that you are likely seeing a thief. Thanks everyone. Kevin

Sympathies! Just awful.

Sorry to hear that. I lost a copy of Fifth Frontier War to a mailroom dirtbag when I was a student. Once I was out in the world, I ordered things to be delivered to my office whenever possible. Nowadays, I take advantage of the package receiving service offered by the storage facility that I use.

Thanks Oberlindes, you are the second person to suggest drop off. Our neighborhood is usually very good, but… Thank you for the sympathy Flashman, it took a while to find that game as TRL only does only a limited run of its games.

Will keep an eye peeled if the thief reaches out to Ontario

That sucks dude.

keep an eye on ebay, and on facebook market place. Although the odds are that they tossed it out when they discovered what it was, and even if a neighbor does try and sell it, the cops will probably say you can't 'prove' it was yours.

Thanks for all the advice. I think the thief did not know what they had and threw it away

I am afraid that went into the nearest dumpster.
