It is obvious to me that there is shared fault for this incident and both the shipper and the buyer should accept their share of the responsibility and move on.
I fully realize that posting again to this effect will not change one person's mind, but responsibility can and should be shared by both parties, whether there is any financial restitution or not. There are many shades of gray between black and white. To not impugn (look it up) the buyer in this instance is wrong in my opinion and I believe there are many reading this who would agree, but, because the issue at hand is a baseball card, they will remain mute. To not impugn the shipper would be fallacious as well.

I was impugned once. It happened in a elevator car standing between "Windy" McCall and "Rip" Repulski.
