stolen - flash stands and a tripod from Sheffield

Gary Bagshawe · 07-03-2007, 09:41

Hiya all, if anybody is offered some flash stands and a tripod cheap please let me know, had them stolen last night out of car.... I know I should have taken them out so im an idiot but I spose this should be a warning to us all.

Sorry to hear that Gary

Know it doesn't help that much (and shouldn't have to do it) but just be pleased you didn't leave more in there!

Sorry to hear that Gary

Might be worth keeping an eye out on ebay

My cameras never get left alone, the tripod is useless as the mount is permanently attached to camera and the stands arnt much use without the flash heads really. Ive contacted local camera shops and they will be on the lookout.

Sorry to hear of your bad luck Gary. In this day and age it seems that a few people in this world belive that anything they see is fair game, they do not want to understand that it could be a persons living that can be effected by their theft. I do hope you have your property returned and agree with Markulous that b{if their is any silver linning to this} it is that more of your equipment was not taken.

Taking it all my stride to be honest, these things happen, they shouldnt but they do.
Oh well off to clean all the broken glass out of the Landy and wait for insurance to call back

Just be thankful that they just didn't take the whole car. This unfortunately has happened to me.

Sorry to hear about this Gary, doubt that they will turn up around here although I will be sure to let you know if they do

Glad to see that you are not dwelling on your bad luck and just getting on with it though.

Sorry to hear that Gary. Updated your title just in case a guest spots it easier

Gary Bagshawe · 07-03-2007, 15:43

Cheers all. Well at least I now have a legitimate reason to go out and spend 250.00 on a decent tripod and head

Damn I hate to hear about this sort of thing happening, especially when you need the gear for work... I hope you get the stuff back Gary.
