tbobodds are the package was either lost off a truck or in one of the sorting facilities and/or damaged beyond deliverable or recognizable.>>
Scott the tracking number shows an arrival scan in Little Rock, Arkansas and no departure scan which meant it never left the facility on its final leg to me. So it wasn't lost off a truck. That means either the package was stolen from the UPS facility or lost there. Maybe it was lost although a trace was run and the place was searched supposedly pretty thoroughly because of the amount of the insurance claim, but I lean toward the fact someone stole the package and yes, I do think the cards will surface. This is not akin to the situation in which a UPS driver kept the package, or delivered it to the wrong address, or it was sent somewhere else in error like ARizona instead of ARkansas. It was scanned in and scanned out of 4 different locations but only in and not out in the 5th. Also the scans in LR were specific of my single package and not a general scan of some packages, which sometimes happens. Had the package had a departure scan out of LR and then was lost, I would agree with you. Under the circumstances, I think they are going to wind up on ebay in the future, hopefully still in their GAI slabs although if the thief knows anything about anything, he'll pop them out and sell them raw or submit them to another grading company. We'll see....
