Stolen card please keep an eye out - And do I have any recourse?

I'd be curious to know who you have told PO wise that you ship and receive vintage bb cards in the mail. That is one malicious looking slit, like they knew exactly what was inside. My postal ladies know all about my cards, but we never discuss price and I think they are nearing a couple hundred years old. I don't have the stat off hand, but in a case of robbery it is usually someone you know. I'd be looking hard at that PO staff in your town...and I like the USPS but I have also been robbed before.

My thoughts too.

This is good advice for everyone to pay attention to. In my case, I don't think it is the problem. I live in a big city and don't have any personal interactions with my postal employees other than when I mail something off (which is rarely because I print my labels through PP). But even then, I don't use my local post office for that. I don't think I've told anyone other than my friends and girlfriend what I do with baseball cards.

That maybe true, but who ever did it, sure seems to have known what was inside.

By chance, was it from an auction house? May be to tip them off?

Just a guess.

EDIT: After looking at the envelope again, this dawned on me.
It was delivered 9:57am Nov 20. There is no way the PO delivery person scanned the barcode and did not notice the cut. It goes right through the code. I have to say it is post delivery without a doubt. Well, in my way of thinking.

Would it even scan with that ripped barcode? I would be cross examining the girlfriend.

Haha. Peter, do you have a glass eye and wear a raincoat?
