Why doesn't he just bid and win the auction? He could then find out all he needed to know about it and the seller. If it's legit, he could probably explain the situation to the seller, pay the relisting fee, and be out of buying it. If it's what he's after, he gets to send the guy to lockup personally.

I just sent a message asking for the serial number.

"Hey, sorry i am just selling the system without any games. We have two of them so we need the the games still but, yea it comes with all the A/V cables and such and also a charger for the wireless controllers. When it arrives at your door, you would be able to set everything up and play it right then.. If you have any more questions just let me know... Thanks "

So even if it is the guy...odds are he is selling his own, and keeping mine so I am screwed either way.

Oh, hmm. Maybe he's stupid. We'll see if he sends the S/N. Or if he uses the one he has already....

Not necessarily.

[ShaggyX]

I told him I have been burned in the past buying stuff online so I would like to see the unit in action before I commit to buying it. If he lets me come over like I am hoping I will try to get a look at both S/N's.

Here you go:

CE345618953-CECH01

Apparently enough of us asked that he thought it was normal....

[ShaggyX]

Yeah I saw that. Definately not mine. What can I say...I am a conspiracy theorist when it comes to my personal possesions (especially considering how much time I spend playing PS3). Still doesn't mean the other one they have isn't mine, but oh well.

BTW...thanks again to everyone. Even if I don't track down the ******* who stole it I really do appreciate all the help you guys have been.

[DRTYFN]

Do you think you could get one of the guys to go act like a prospective buyer and get a look at the other one? They could always swab it for your "DNA". Don't worry, it'll turn up sooner or later.

Hey Shaggy,

I don't want to sound bad, but where was it you live again? Unless your in some po dunk town. There is always a detective somewhere around on weekends. Also, I don't have the game and am not sure of the value, but wouldn't it still be a Grand theft charge? Whomever it was that answered the phone at the police was just trying to get you to go away.
Even if that isn't your ser# and if you think the other one they have may be yours, still go to the police and keep asking for thier help. Keep going over heads to get what you want. You may be right in your thoughts.
I know even here in our small dep't we have 2 detectives on call. And one handling all zones.

I hope somehow you get it back... The top thing on my hate list is people stealing other people's shiate.

Good Luck!

Sorry to hear about that Shaggy, that really sucks

Hope you find out more about the roommate's friend.

All I can say is that I was out of state when it occured and I can prove it. Can Adam say that? Hmmmm.
