<p>[QUOTE="keemao, post: 1934128, member: 43972"]While I sympathize with you and your loss and am sorry to hear that it happened, and I hope you can get the coins back, there is a lesson to be learned here.....and that is, NEVER leave mail or cell phones, especially mailers that can hold small valuable items, sitting in an automobile where they can be seen and then stolen. Even if the windows are up and the doors locked, it only takes a second to bust out a window and grab the stuff. When I leave the car or truck my cell phone goes in the console in the middle if I don't want to take it in with me. If I have coins or other valuable things to mail in bubble mailers, I use a canvas type bag to carry them in to the PO so you can't really see what is in there.</p><p><br /></p><p>It really sucks that this happened to you. From almost 40 years of working in two state court systems, the chances of them finding who did it is pretty small unless they were able to get fingerprints off your vehicle or someone saw them or....and you might check on this....there were some video cameras that the store might have had on the parking area or the mall or whatever where you stopped. It would be worth doing a little research to see if some camera could have recorded what happened. So if you have the time, check into that.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
