This is awful! I'm so sorry. It sounds, to me at least, as though it may be an employee (who has access to keys), or even a previous tenant (though less likely). Either way, WHEN they catch the person, I hope they are prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. I'm so glad your family will be with you for support... please keep us posted.

Sorry about what happened. My hats off to you for keeping a meticulous record of all your items. I don't even know some codes in mind. All I can remember is how many bags I have in total. I hope you could somehow trace them.

Whenever I purchase an item I look for its date code and write it down, in case something like this happens, as well as the location and date of purchase. If I sell something or loan it to a family member then its details are noted as well. It's something that my mom and aunt taught me and it's how they successfully keep track of their collections.

Thanks for sharing. Now I feel like I have a lot of catching up to do as I don't even write anything down. I used to write when I purchase them but was too complacent to update it. No one loans anything from me not even my mom. [emoji16]

Thank you for your support and yes, I do believe the thief is an employee but I can't prove it. Yet.

It's a little tedious but it has made reporting my loss to the authorities, online, and to other locations such as a pawn shop so much easier and accurate.

So sorry to hear of your terrible experience [emoji22] The feeling of having your personal space violated is not pleasant at all.

I do hope that the police are able to apprehend the perpetrator and in the best case recover your precious stolen possessions.

All the best and please keep us posted.

The thief, carrying a very large bag or suitcase could have been caught on a surveillance camera. Check to see if there are any that are mounted in the area of your apt. building. Hope they get the culprit!

Kudos to you for keeping such amazing records! I hope that your items are found and returned safely to you. :hugs:

What an ordeal, Miss Krys. Very sorry you have to go through this, and I echo others who applaud your record keeping. It sure sounds like the thief knew what they wanted (and where to get it) if they walked away without your pcs and jewelry. Hope these things return to you and that the person who did this is apprehended quickly. ☹️️
