wow and he still had the key

That's amazing, and sort of sad at the same time with the owner still having the key. Mind you not a bad return on the $3000 he paid for it.

Well he is certainly lucky, wonder if he will be buying a lottery ticket.

If he had claimed on insurance when it was stolen wouldn't it now be the property of insurance company - unless he didn't claim..

Thats pretty amazing.

I heard this in the radio this morning. Restores a little hope in life

I wonder if they'll be able to track back and find the thieves too, wouldn't that be a happy ending!
