Missing Mantle Rookie at National

[orly57]

Did I miss the part where she said she actually saw Earl take the card? As Peter wrote, it was a tough read.

I thought she said she observed Earl at the ice cream stand talking to Greg. Seems unlikely Earl took the card then hung around to chat with Greg at the ice cream stand.

Earl Johnson is no longer working for SGC because he got another job with another company right at the time of their move to Florida, and he did NOTHING unethical that caused his dismissal..

As far as I am concerned, Earl has always been a very fine & decent person...pretty hard to believe he is capable of doing something as was being represented in this thread, and because these are serious statements that are now being made public, these discussions should tread carefully.

Following up on what Larry said, to C Vader, what's the basis for your accusation?

I guess I must not have been clear but that was the intent of my post 101 from earlier. Greg did not confirm it was Earl but has not come on here and denied it either.

Greg's first post asks for any info on its whereabouts, so presumably he doesn't know who stole it?

I could be wrong but there's something off about this whole thread.

Yes...again that was my overall point. C Vader knows who stole it but Greg has lead on that he does not know but he sorta infers it was Earl (in his reply to C Vader) but just has not come out and said so.

FYI-Earl wasn't offered a position in Florida. And I have no doubt he stole the card.

That's going to require a full name.

If you read my previous posts, I have only stated the facts of the unfortunate scenario. It sounds like something out of a B movie and it angers me to think somebody got me with my guard down.

The Mantle was passed around at the ice cream stand. We all parted ways without me saying “WHERE IS MY EFFING CARD”. Moments later, I am minus 1 mantle rookie.

These are the FACTS of what happened. I will not offer any specific “opinions” about this issue publicly on this forum. It is unfortunate this had to happen. All I can say to everyone who reads this is to learn from my mistake. Make sure you are spatially aware of your items at all times. They can and will spontaneously grow legs.

As for the Vader character, I reached out to her on a direct message and got no
reply. With all the clowning that goes on through this forum, I would not be surprised if it was someone sitting behind a keyboard having some fun at my expense. I salute you, troll.

This is Greg, signing off. Everybody just keep an eye out for my card. That’s all I ask. Have a good weekend.

That is dirty!

I assume you have reached out to, Leon, as I would assume he has a lot more of her info on her whereabouts? Phone number, etc.

So you brought your Mantle to the ice cream stand, it was passed around among several people, and you forgot and left without it? Is that correct?

I am the girl who said 'I cant believe you guys are collecting Dog Food Labels LOL!' I had Florida Gators hat.

She gave a pretty good description of herself. Do you not remember talking to a guy about his Red Heart set and a girl being with him? Did she not say what she said she did (about the dog food label)? Was she not in a Florida Gators hat? You make it sound like you never saw her or talked to her. Either she's making the whole thing up or you have a really bad memory.

The full name is out there however, this member doesn't have a good phone number on file. "She" is gone. Apparently this person used to work at SGC quite some time ago. I would not believe anything this member said at this point because it is possibly not who it is portrayed to be. It was a 5 yr old membership. That said, there is this newer info....

I have information from a credible source that Earl didn't take this card and this Lisa person has a grudge against him from years ago. And my source says SGC did in fact offer Earl a job but he couldn't take it due to personal matters. I confirmed Earl is in good standing with SGC.

For what it’s worth, Earl came to work with us at Baseball Card Roadshows for a year. He didn’t want to move to Florida. During his time with us he was around hundreds of thousands of dollars of cash and inventory and we were never concerned nor had any issues.

Update, Net 54 has all of my current info and I have no grudge against anyone. I simply stated my opinion based on personal experiences. Sincerely, Lisa Prodeline
