I had a very similar and bad experience in 2004, while I was still in the Navy. I sold an 1894 Plant System railroad timetables brochure. It was worth $300 to the buyer. When the buyer received the padded mailer, he stated it showed evidence of having been tampered with, and it was empty. I had it sent via UPS with insurance. After their investigation, I was compensated, but it took I think 2 months. The investigation revealed that the timetable was stolen by a UPS employee along with several other people's shipments. The comments above are so true; bad people exist everywhere and at every level.
