"Ethical behavior is based on more than meeting minimum legal requirements. It invariably involves a higher, moral standard."
When I mistakenly wind up with something that's not mine, and it can realistically be returned to its rightful owner, I will give it back...every time. Whether discovering that the lid from my neighbor's trash can blew over onto my lawn or finding someone's wallet on the ground in a parking lot, I make sure the item finds its way back to where it belongs.
In this particular case, to anyone receiving somebody else's baseball card in the mail, just give it back. It's the right thing to do. Period.
Best Regards,
Eric
