I am extremely pleased to report that my E105 Cobb was among the recovered cards.

The article said the two missing cards had a value of $90,000, the Matty went for $145,000 so I think he's safe.

Also pretty sure the culprit will do everything he can to get the location of those two cards to the police. Anything to mitigate at this point.

For the most part, the final resolution is about the best that could have been hoped for.

The consignors get the value they deserved, the bidders get the cards they wanted at the price they were willing to pay, the auction house gets their commission, and most importantly, the thief will likely spend some significant time in jail.

The thief will probably get more followers on social media

Glad to hear this story has a happy ending.

I guess we will find this perp got a hold of the package.

Thankfully, those landmark cards are not lost to the hobby; that would have been a shame.

It figures ML silence had to be related to the investigation - happy they're able to make (nearly) everyone whole again.

Not a bad day for law enforcement in the hobby. This recovery, and the Anthony Curcio fake PSA slab arrest (https://www.sportscollectorsdaily.co...ver-2-million/).

That's an awesome story, glad to see federal law enforcement focused on protecting the little guy.

That's great news!
That was my biggest concern, that the thief would have dumped the cards when he felt the police closing in.
