I didn't really know what forum to put this in, and while there are probalby better sites to post this question to, I trust you guys more than anyone else on the internet. So, here goes...
My little brother decided to throw a party that got out of hand while my parents were out of town for the weekend. During the course of this party, my $1000 MSRP THX certified DVD player got stolen. (Fortunately, all of my headphones and CDs were safely still at school, otherwise my brother would be dead by now
) While my brother thinks he knows who took it, he says there is no sure way to get it back and that he will compensate me for it. I paid $500 for it brand new at a Tweeter wise buy a little less than 2 years ago. It is no longer made, but it is going on ebay for $300-$400 new and used every once in a while.
What I am looking for from you guys is any suggestions on how best to do that. One option is that he give me cash for it, and there are a few options here.
A) $500 (what I paid for it)
B) More than $500 because unless I manage to pick up one on ebay which will probalby be used anyway, I won't be able to get a DVD player of equal quality for $500 today. Or....
C) Less than $500 because the value of the player has depreciated over the past 2 years.
Or he could get me a new DVD player. The options here are to pick one up on ebay of the same model, or to buy me a new comparable one of your suggestion. Any help would be appreciated in settling this matter smoothly and without the loss of my brother's life.
