Update and clarification:
Clarification portion: Over the last 7+ weeks! before posting on here! I did call Rick twice and sent several messages and I was being dismissed. I realized I was not getting my cards back unless I went there (I didn't want to and found the suggestion lunacy). I did provide some of the auction numbers (and he didn't seem to have an internal system), but that doesn't help because it does not seem like they are in that type of order and became commingled with other cards. For the record, I never felt Rick was "stealing the cards", he just didn't know which were mine anymore and didn't try to figure it out. I/he assumed he would eventually make good, but that was too long for my liking, especially without replies to the most recent emails.
Update:
After posting, a fellow board member reached out to Rick to inform him that until this was resolved he would not bid on more of Rick's auctions. I thank this board member for this because this motivated Rick to resolve this. The resolution was: he sent me the 1963 cards that were mine, the 1967 cards that were mine and some extra 1967 cards that initially weren't mine, in lieu of the other years cards that were mine which he didn't/couldn't find.
Conclusion: I am content that I get back close to what was mine (maybe better, maybe worse (I'm selling anyway)). I am glad another board member assisted. I don't feel Rick is stealing cards, but has a large room for improvement with customer service and organization. This is simply my tale, others have better and worse.
