If I was BruceJender though, I'd start taking pictures of the bike in fun places and every few months mail one to the shop.



I feel like you stole this idea from somewhere.

You guys are terrible. He is getting his bike back with no bill. Why do you want to rub it in?

Probably because OP offered these people a more than fair offer at the outset but they were determined to take advantage of him.

Yep. frick that shop for trying to extort OP after he offered a more than fair deal for them. He shouldn't have offered them a cent.

As with everything, there's always more to the story. The OP did make the offer. What happened on the other side is where it gets convoluted.

I can explain further later.

I'm going to try and get more details while I'm there. I think there is still more to learn.

This thread definitely needs an old school MS Paint for visuals.

Season 2 of The Wire. Police Surveillance van was stolen by some dock workers as a practical joke. They mailed him pics of it from all over the world, travelling in a Sea-Can.

This is starting to feel like one of those Facebook Ad-Sponsored Stories.

"You're not going to believe what happened when this guy opened his door..." And you have to scroll down 350 pages to find out he saw a squirrel.

This really is an awesome thread, keep up the pictures and videos. May want to have your cell phone video rolling when you pick it up just in case they act like idiots.

He isn't picking it up from the shop. The police are in possession of it now. He likely won't have any contact with the shop, although I would love to see it.

Columbus is actually pretty nice.

I was stationed there for over 4 years and my wife is from there.

Population is around 30,000.



Yeah, that's not anywhere near what I'm thinking of.

I won't start guessing, because I don't want to frick this up for OP and big damn hero.
