After the memory lane recovery, the armchair cops think it is simple to find stolen goods "by Friday" . I wonder what the odds are of any goods being recovered? Granted, these are pretty High profile, but I'd imagine less than 1% of stuff is ever found.

It depends if they planned for phase 2 as carefully as phase 1.

Have you personally seen any proof of co-conspirators in the footage? I watched a few of the videos and saw one guy grab a case and walk out. If I was shown in the photos. Aside from Huge-o (sic) . I'd come out and say I had nothing to do with it....quickly as possible.

The three guys distracting the three employees are working in conjunction with the bag man. They have been seen on film scouting out the booth all day long, even going as far as changing clothes several times so as to appear to be different individuals. I would suspect while this was all going down they had one or two people stationed as lookouts, maybe at exits and/or even vehicles waiting close by outside. This was not a spurt of the moment grab and go, they planned this out well in advance from all signs.

I have a question? What was their plan b?
They waited all day..how did they know whoever took the cards out of the display cases would put the cards in the carrying case and leave it on the floor?..if that person simply took the case with him.to the parking lot or just to his workers waiting for them to finish packing etc..what was the plan b?

Yeah. Theft is usually a crime of opportunity. No opportunity, no theft. The Plan B stuff is usually reserved for higher concept or more sensitive thefts than baseball cards.

There is one video where it's pretty clear two other guys are involved distracting Ashish's workers.

One member of the gang will come to Jesus pretty quickly and realize they are not going to live happily ever after and will go to the authorities to hopefully save his hide to whatever extent possible.

Bingo. There are too many witnesses, security pictures, and conspirators/thieves. It is only a matter of time before the Prisoner's Dilemma plays out.
