My Excalibur was stolen out of my Jeep last night . .

[BeachBumm]

Hello All,

Just a quick note to ask you to keep an eye out for this machine, they broke into my vehicle last night and completely stole everything! Entire stereo system was stolen, my navigation, sirius satellite system and worst of all my Excalibur. It is a bit unusual in that it is a unfinished aluminum except for lower white rod. Please let me know if you ever see this detector either for sale or in the field. It was stolen in the very wonderful town of Antioch, CA (Where we have layed off 30% of our police force). I would expect someone to try using it here in the bay area, but you know thieves they try to get rid of items and get them out of state asap.

Thanks for any help

Sorry to hear about your loss. I hope that you get your belongings back soon. I hate thieves.

I am a local hunter here in Martinez . I'll keep an eye out for it while i am hunting area beaches.

Thank you both for the kind words and for keeping an eye out for it.

Like you said they will probably pawn it. Hopefully you will find out who stole your stuff. Sorry about your loss.

Will keep an eye out for any thing like it in the Galv. area. Is there any other ID markings that would help?

keep an eye on the bay for a few months, and craigslist too...

I never leave my GPS or detector for that matter in my truck, but if I have to I put it out of site. Watch the pawn shops and I hope you get it back.

Scum, no other word describes them better. I hope they get caught and I hope the detector is recovered and returned to you. Good luck.

Hey B.B.
Is that an Excal 1000?
Blue or yellow head phones?

I'd rather not send pics to pawn shops. By law I think they have to hold an item they just bought for a month, at least in some states. That's to insure that they haven't bought a stolen item. You might get a clerk that just blows off the guy with the detector, not wanting to get involved with it if he knows it's stolen. Instead, I'd wait a few weeks and then start hitting those pawn shops and re-sale shops. Play like you are a customer and ask if they have any metal detectors to sell. That way you keep everybody "honest" and if they bring yours out you can then show them the picture and call the cops.
