Default UPS Lost My T206 Walter Johnson

A couple months ago, I won this beauty at an auction house. I waited ... and waited ... and waited. Then, the dreaded note stating that it couldn't be found.

Here is a pic of the WaJo that never came.



I can get over it though, because there are others out there, and I was reimbursed. Thankfully it wasn't a crazy rare Canseco! I had one that USPS lost a couple years back that was coming via certified mail. Yikes!

Feel free to share your sob stories.

That's a shame...beautiful card. It still might show up. I had a 1967 Topps Bobby Orr lost in the mail for 6 months last year.

Looks like the Big Train got derailed.

Man, that is a tough one. Glad to see you were reimbursed at least.

God, that's a beauty. I'm heartbroken for you. I hope it finds its way into a collection, at least, and not destroyed or in some landfill.

Sorry to hear this, what a beautiful card too! I have what will be my most prized possession of my collection coming (1986 Fleer Sticker Jordan, because I cant afford the base) hopefully it makes it way safely!

Sorry to hear about that. It's terrible when something like this happens. A similar situation happened to me, USPS misdelivered a card to another house, and it ended up being stolen on me. Never saw the card, but got my money back.
