headoverheels 333 #1 May 21, 2004 They don't know what it is, but somehow know it only has a few jumps. Looks more worn than that to me. Maybe someone local can go take a look. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=310&item=3677940273&rd=1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skybytch 273 #3 May 21, 2004 He did include a pic of the harness/container's data panel, which includes the serial number. It's an NJ, which means it likely has 120-ish main and reserve canopies in it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ematteo 0 #4 May 21, 2004 Looks like this (from USPA stolen gear): Stolen from a car in Los Angeles, California, October 29, 2003. Javelin NJ, C-16, royal blue, gray, yellow pinstripes. Velocity 79, royal blue, white, yellow; Micro Raven 120, white, Jason Derrick on packing data card. Contact Jason Derrick, e-mail. (1-04) Email sent to Jason.

Luna 0 #5 May 21, 2004 Being that the guy knows absolutely nothing about what he's got, my guess is that it has 8 reserve repacks on the card, so he thinks that means 8 jumps. That's just a guess, but where else would he have come up with such a precise (and low) number? I sincerely hope that Jason gets his rig back!

AggieDave 6 #7 May 21, 2004 Isn't there a way to look up a rigger from his/her seal? The seal is shown very well in one of the pics, someone could find out what rigger that was and contact him/her.--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."

alanab 0 #10 May 21, 2004 i cant find a good pic of his rig, but this is as close as i got. what do u think? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mr2mk1g 10 #11 May 21, 2004 I can't see any discrepancies from the pics. The only thing then that we know to be different is the harness size... perhaps the owner could have got that wrong? If it is stolen, I don't think anyone should contact the seller to tell them. This is not one of those professional online acutioneers and could be the actual thief themself. Even if they're not, if they find out the item is stolen it may well simply dissapear so they don't lose their money. If it is the item, leave it to the owner to contact the police to get the rig back. Don't trust the seller to simply hand it over - they may not be an innocent party.

WrongWay 0 #13 May 21, 2004 I can verify, I believe that is indeed Rastas' rig. I've known him for a long time, and I've seen that rig 100's of times. Alana, you might wanna give him a call.

Yes, let the owner of the rig deal with it. He is the one who will have to notify the police and go through the process of prosecuting the theif (if this is indeed the stolen gear). I'm sure he appreciates your concern, but there's really nothing you can do at this point. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
