Kind of like modern autograph cards, eh?

This is the main reason I carry collectibles insurance. For fire and theft is almost secondary, but my policy also covers shipments that are lost or never show up.

But are you sure your insurer would agree that this shipment didn’t show up?

Exactly. If the package is marked as delivered and signed by someone, then good luck getting your money back from your insurer.

OP: do you know if there was information on the box that would have made a thief interested in it?

I know some AHs don't do this, but I've received auction winnings in a package that clearly indicates it's from an auction house, which isn't great.

Notify the police and get a lawyer. Start legal proceedings to get FedEx and their driver to testify. Otherwise your card and the money you paid for the card have probably both disappeared.

Yes they already reimbursed for a “lost” package. I just showed documentation that I have no idea who the person was that signed it and FedEx couldn’t show or proof the name of the person. Also I showed I’m the only person who resides at my residence. As a lot of people on this board, I have CIS. Have had great experience with them overall.

Fed Ex package sorting looks to be fairly efficient. I can’t imagine what could ever go wrong!
