>An overnight fire heavily damaged a Henderson toy store, according to the Henderson Fire Department.

>The fire was reported about 4:30 a.m. today at Brad’s Toys and Collectibles in the 1400 block of North Boulder Highway, officials said. Nobody was injured, and the cause of the fire is under investigation.

A lot of photos of burned/destroyed toys. Shocking he didn't have the place insured for the content.

Poor guy. I think i read a news story about theft at that same place many years ago too.

Good luck with that. Toy collectors are notoriously stingy motherfuckers

Looks like he had some decent stuff.

Any idea what the guys between GI Joe and Battlestar Galactica are?

Why wouldn't you have insurance?

Shut the fuck up, if you don't make enough to have insurance you don't make enough to be owning a fucking physical shop.
Get the fuck outta here Brad.

Who is this person and why should I care about his poor business decisions?

no, it was electrical from looks of it
fire went top to mid section of store
real smart not having fire insurance in a paper and plastics jammed retail space

call me when Jin's house burns to the ground.

I went to this place a few times, it was nice. Bad planning and no insurance aside, they were nice and friendly people, and it's a bummer that it's one less toy store within driving distance.

>funko pops
heh, and nothing of value was lost

so the cunts in here are from the transformers thread, right?

That makes no sense
He runs a brick and mortar store with collectable toys
If he can't afford fire insurance it begs all kinds of questions how he even got the store up and running in the first place because Fire Insurance in most states is either a one time lump sum or monthly payments at hundred dollar or less range, and if the store is in LA I can tell you it's one of the cheaper places to have fire insurance
nigga is either dumb or wanted out in a real bad way

>guy's sister makes it sound like their insurance didn't cover fire
What did it cover then?
Petty theft?
Flooding?
Fire is the basic of the basic I'm damn curious what multi coverage package they got in Vegas that doesn't have fire on the books.
>>
>>5581769
I believe the specifics are that the insurance wouldn't cover the collectibles.

>I believe the specifics are that the insurance wouldn't cover the collectibles.

That's some stupid bullshit.

When I was a kid our house got broken into when we evacuated for a hurricane and they stole vidya consoles and games, and those were covered by our renter's insurance.

Are they gonna have a fire sale?
