Hey Sup Forums help the retard. I bought these pants and the idiot left on the security tag. I didn't want to drive 20 miles to bass pro and 20 back just to get the tag off so I started trying to to the lighter trick and it didn't work. Now I'm at point beyond return and have a burnt security tag on new pants. Ideas?

pry it off with a screw driver. wtf is wrong with you

Just mask off the pants with plastic wrap and snip that sucker with some wire cutters.

dont buy pants at fucking bass pro.

I did, and it came up with this m.youtube.com/watch?v=t5HaxcWREwY
They're for hiking not for style. But point made.

Just use a damn magnet

Tbf you're pretty much fucked and now you've cucked yourself cause you've melted the part where the sensor remover goes in to release the pin.

Best solution OP, just bolt cutter the fuckers and pray to god that you don't ruin whatever it is it's attached to too badly - they're designed pretty well as a fuck you to people who steal so that it ruins the item when tampered with

Also source: worked in retail for too long

idea. why not put the, under water and cut tag. the ink would not be a problem. even better, flowing water.

How they are designed to be removed.

Cut through it with a coping or haxsaw

Yeah apparently this is the one without a spring and I found out the hard way. If I bring the receipt in you think they'll care if I'm honest?
how strong of a magnet?

Bump don't let this die

To be honest, I probably would allow an exchange but that's just my two cents and I work with a bunch of fuckwits who leave tags on shit all the time (nightmare). Only issue being is that the item is now essentially shrinkage for the store cause it'd have to be damaged out.

Try your luck with the store, if you get a manager who doesn't care you're good to go, if not just take them home and pry it loose as much as you can then snip the pin. Depending on if they're the nasty fuckers with steel pins you could be in for a western though

I'm assuming that's steel by the looks. Could I buy a strong enough magnet and it still come off?

Looks identical to the ones we use in work, a magnet won't work on these types of sensors as they're held in place and released with like this hook thing that only specialist tools can remove.

You're pretty much fucked tbh bud, in terms of keeping the item pristine anyways. See if you can get any coping saw metal cutting blades from your local hardware store as they're very thin and might reduce the damage, could take a while though and be fiddly

Would also like to add this still isn't a certain to release it the pins are durable, they are absolute cunts to get off

Do you own a vice grip? Put it in there and keep cranking until the thing breaks apart. I've done it a few times when stuff like this has happened

Sorry, I meant a vice, not a vice grip...

>op stole these pants from a store
>goes on anonymous site for tips

are you a bitchboy?
I've broken one just like that with my hands and some time.
Bought some shorts from Target and they left the thing on there, was too lazy to go back and had some time on my hand.

No, I ended up bending the pin and it broke off so I finally got it.
I wish I stole these because that wasn't worth paying $60 for them.

1. Use channel locks and break it off bit by bit till you get to the guts. Then go apeshit on it to release.
2. Get the bigger part as far away from the clothes as opssible and:
a. use lineman pliers or wire cutters to work cutting it
b. take a dremel on the slowest speed and just cut it
c. use a hacksaw with a metal cutting blade to saw it in half. use gentle strokes to get a notch and then saw.

Vice grip and pliers. Vice grip one end, and work the other side with the plyiers, bending side to side and pulling. It will eventually give itself away.

Ceran wrap everything around it and let your autistic ideas continue

God damn, you people are stupid. Wrap a rubber band around it, between the device and the fabric. Keep wrapping it over and over again until it pops off. It works perfectly.

cut off your balls

Magnet......
