[johneg777]

I had a whole lot of equipment stolen a week or two ago. There were 1) 11x14, 3) 8x10, 2) 5x7, 4) 4x5, about 50 view lenses, a RB67 system, plus other things. I live in Southern California. Email me at johneg777@yahoo.com for details if you have seen anything too good to be true. PLEASE This was my life.

I'm really sorry to learn of your loss. Is there a way for you to post serial numbers or images of you gear so we can be on the lookout?

[Daniel Stone]

if you have some sort of a list of the makes/models, serial #'s, etc... that would probably be helpful, less time emailing back and forth.

I check C-list almost daily, but if you somewhat of a list, that would be best for everyone to keep a lookout

I'm in LA btw...

[Richard K.]

I am completely sickened by this and will keep an eye out in my area (you never know).
What were the circumstances of the theft?

[Marek Warunkiewicz]

I will as well, look out for this. My thoughts are with you.
