Thanks bro and I am currently going back and forth with them .. Apparently that was a extra option that I didn't pay for being that it was a beater and I had liability on it only

That sucks! Like others have said, usually your renters/homeowners will cover personal belongings outside your home. They did for my daughter's diaper bag when it got stolen out of our car visiting my parents in Boston.

That sucks man, check your local craigslist in a few weeks to see if it pops. Happened to a guy on another forum I'm on, someone broke into his garage and stole 2 sets of rims and a transmission. He just found 1 set of rims on craigslist today.

That sucks man, I am not sure what I would do if my gear was taken from me. This is just that little extra motivation to always clear out the car.

If you have all your OG boxes (or some photos on your computer it is in your EXIF info) with your serial numbers on them post your stolen gear in these areas & start checking craigslist or even local pawn shops. Also maybe give the cops the serial numbers as well.

Photo.net Stolen Registery

Stolen 911

Stolen Camera Finder This will search the web for new photos uploaded that have your EXIF info.

Camera Trace This is like the link above but you pay $10 per camera and it will continue to search for you as time goes by and will email you if a photo has been uploaded with your EXIF info.

best of luck in getting this stuff back brother, I know how it is working over time to gather photo gear.

Sorry to hear about that. I would put in a call to the local Pawn Shops and check Craigslist / ebay to see if they are dumb enough to sell.

Good Luck
