It is common sense that if you claim something belongs to you and was stolen that you have to prove it. There has to be some evidence. You are not being victimized twice if you don't have that evidence, except maybe by your own stupidity.
Small claims court takes about 3 months. You file a complaint, which can be handwritten and in most places doesn't even have to state a claim coherently. The defendant gets an answer date and then you get a hearing date. The judge will hear both of you and sort the mess out. It's not a lengthy process and it's not difficult.

I am willing to wager a bakers' dozen of tween cupcakes, that there is lack of understanding of legal process.

I have a question for badgeguy. We know that you sell badges on eBay under the name of "fraternityguru" amongst other aliases. If YOU were selling a very expensive piece and an unknown person contacted you stating that the item was stolen but could NOT produce the police report for the item, would YOU stop the auction and give the item to them without the report? I think not.

Hey! we switched from popcorn to cupcakes? Cool. I would like red velvet, please, with cream cheese frosting, if possible.
Enjoying the show? Not really; honestly, getting a little bored at the predictability. It's bordering on bathos now.
