I just came across this on CL this morning.
This irritates me and I hope they get it back.
It was a CARTER gas brand pump.

I totally agree. I find it sad when people cant display their items without having low lifes rip them off.

Sure are a bunch of A--h---- around.

I hate thieves and liars....

Hang em up high in a tree for all the people to see....

Maybe do a little "selective pruning" first

That makes me sick I may say lots on here but this is the worst thing that a person can do. Hang em by there toes!

I'll keep an eye out down in my area. Maybe it will show up at the Monroe swap meet. Richard

I remember one time I found a visible gas pump at a farm, it was laying in a ditch rusting away. The price $1000+. I asked, why are you leaving this $1000 gas pump laying in a ditch, but yet you have that $150 lawn mower in the shed?

I hate to be the devil's advocate, but, why isn't the pump in the building it is sitting in front of, or even bolted down outside the building?

I don't think anyone deserves to have something stolen from them, but this should be the first concern when leaving something sitting outside that the pickers consider "rusty gold."

I've been saying this about people who do carjackings here in Detroit! Start executing them on live television and I GUARANTEE the carjackings will stop! And I ain't talking that easy going lethal injection *****!! Stand them up against a wall and get it done!!!

Well said. That is the only language the low lifes understand.

I feel for the guy.
That last line in his ad says it all.

"That's right,rat out your friend you helped load it in his truck for and get some money."

I let the guy know the Old Gas community was aware of the theft. He wrote back:

"I really appreciate it. Have you ever dealt with a guy out in CDA named Tanner that has quite a few coke machines and some gas pumps? I was talking to him last week about trading my pump towards a coke machine so my kids could learn about running a business and making money. I have him the address to see the pump and then it turns up missing three days later and I haven't heard from the guy. Just wondering. Thanks again

Justin"

I don't know what the CDA is and I don't know a Tanner

What are ya looken at me for!! I didnt do it!!!
It used to be you could kind of guess who may have a stolen pump or something around here but there are so many people jumping on the pickers bandwagon that it could be anyone. I had a styrofoam lid stolen off a cooler I had layen out in the front yard. It was out there months then one day it was gone. Bas%$#ds

Could CDA be referring to Canada, but that is 2 1/2 hrs away.

Nope DB, Canada is either CDN, CA or CAN. Maybe CDA it is a NSA offshoot? Best not to talk about it then.
