Stolen cards recovered - Musial & Kiner London Dry Cards

I'm surprised that those cards were not mailed with a tracking number. First Class provides tracking at minimal cost. Can I ask what you paid for the cards? I wonder if the seller felt some remorse.

Ken & Lou:

Here is the message that he sent to me indicating they were stolen: - My first thought was that he was reneging on the sale. A refund has been issued - I have made it clear that I want the cards if/when they surface. - Drew

<< Dear Ebay Friend, This has never happened to me in 14+ years selling items on Ebay and placing packages in my mail slot to be picked up by my mail carrier. Here's what happened. I put the envelope with your 2 cards friday morning. The postal worker for some odd reason failed to take any of the several pieces of mail I place out there. I put it out there again friday night to be picked up on Saturday. Evidently, someone came onto my property in the middle of the night, and took your package (plus 2 others I had out there). I feel really violated and reported this to the authorities, including the postal serve. I asked Ebay for assistance and they suggested I simply contact the customers, explain the situation and offer a complete refund. If I had these same cards in stock, I'd simply send them to you. Please acknowledge this message, and I'm terribly sorry for the mishap, as mentioned, it's never happened to me before. Your refund will be processed later this evening.

Sorry that you did not get the cards; I feel for you. I would be happy with a refund and move on....I have had issues with the post office lately. One package of sports related stuff took 10 days to arrive from the west coast; we both thought it was lost. Another package of cards from a board member from South Dakota took several days to arrive after tracking info said it was "delivered".

Not the same as your issue but still a pain overall. It looks like you are at least getting a refund.

and move on. If I saw him relist that may be a different story.

Thanks guys - I received my refund and have no other choice but to move on -life is too short. I'll keep my eyes open should they once again surface at auction.

The story sounds very suspect...the bit about him feeling violated feels contrived and is a misdirection...

Ask him to see a copy of the report he filed when he called the police...
