Steve G. -- this isn't a "technical service" forum, and maybe you haven't been here long enough to understand why Dave outed this and Leon permitted it. Many thousands of dollars change hands every month on the B/S/T, and when things go horribly wrong, it is worthwhile for the rest of us (who spend a lot of our disposable income via the B/S/T) to know about it and draw our own conclusions. Maybe you would feel differently when you spend a few thousand dollars purchasing or selling cards on the B/S/T.

And Leon has brokered solutions in these difficult situations before (witness the fake T205 Cobb thread, for one example). He doesn't have to do this, but most of us hope he continues to do so.

And you need to read more closely -- Dave received a CLOSED/empty package, that had the empty stamp. If it wasn't actually open when Dave received it, it wouldn't have been in a postal bag. We may be a "bunch of babies", but for the most part we pay attention when we read, and review the whole thread before we start an antagonistic new thread about it (to avoid looking stupid).
