Default Stolen card please keep an eye out - And do I have any recourse?

Got my mail today, and one of the envelopes was slashed open and the contents missing. When I checked the tracking number, I was dismayed to find that it was a rare card - Steinfeldt with factory 30 number showing

Is there anything I can do about this? If so, any advice would be much appreciated.

And please keep an eye out for this card. It is pretty distinctive. Thank you.

Do you have a secure mailbox? Surprised the USPS would have delivered that without a "Contents Missing" slip attached to it.

Last time I had an empty package delivered to me, it could easily be deduced to be due to very poor packing. Yours definitely looks rifled through.

I am also surprised it was delivered w/o the usual tag that I have seen when a package is delivered opened/damaged. I am not sure what re-course you have. You might try reaching out to the local post-master.

Really sorry this happened to you Luke.

I would talk to the Postmaster first if you don't get the answers you are looking for contact the Postal Inspectors they are the Police of the Post Office thats just down right theft .

Not to make light of the loss, but Seinfeld covered postal inspectors-- interrogation under the hot lights and all.

Ouch not the Lukester!!! Nice damn card too.

I'll keep an eye out for ye. You'd have to imagine that whomever stole it wouldn't be dumb enough to list it on eBay though. (Or maybe they are).

Hey Luke,
I didn't read all the replies, so sorry if I'm repeating what was already said, but to be safe maybe you should block out your address on the picture you posted here.

In a much similar situation I had a purchase that I never received. The tracking stated it was delivered, however I have no idea as to where as I don't have it.

I filed a claim with PayPal and then my credit card, both avenues were fruitless. The provided tracking number from the seller stating it was delivered shut them both immediately. They would not even discuss it.

I am left holding an empty bag.

Sorry, but I think this is the same situation you will find yourself in.

Sorry to hear about this Luke.

As far as insurance goes, the seller has to claim it through the PO. I've done before on a item I shipped that got broken. I refunded the buyer - who supplied pictures of the broken item. Filed claim online had had my insurance money within three days.

Also, this community will find the card when it surfaces.

Best of luck Luke.
