Al C.risafulliDoug, I am SO glad that the collector got some of his cards back! He must be elated. I can only imagine what it would be like to have a collection that took so long to assemble disappear like that. He must have felt so violated.
I can only hope that if something like that happened to me, it would generate the same degree of interest that this thread has. I hadn't checked into this thread for the bulk of the day, but when I logged in this evening and saw all the posts, I immediately scrolled to the bottom to add my response so that I could be quickly counted among the supporters. It's great to see everyone pull together in support of a fellow collector like this. It sort of restores my faith in humanity when people from all walks of life can all pull together in solidarity when we remain focused on a topic of common interest, like baseball cards.
Best of luck to him in finding the rest of his cards and catching the bad guys.
