Possible way to help Ben
Posted By: Mike McGrail
Just can't shake the ugly feeling that I got when I read Bens post. I feel worse about this then when the Steelers blew it AGAIN this past post season against the Pats. And I have been a die-hard Black and Gold fan since forever.

I was thinking the same thing Mike. I was in the middle of a trade with Ben, and two of the cards stolen are for all intensive purposes, are mine (the D304 Barry and CJ Evers). I'll be keeping my eyes open for these two cards in specific through every outlet I know, and if found, will join Ben in legal action.

I'll watch for the orange borders Tigers card since im always looking for the Pirates team card from that set.Its a tough card and since theyre handcut it should be an easy card to tell from other Tiger team cards which dont show up often anyway

A handful of the cards used to be mine and I know them very well and it would be impossible for me not to notice them at public market including:

MIKE - This is a great idea for all of us to network to try to recover the stolen cards and nab the guilty party.

I'm collecting Mellos and Matties so I'll keep an eye on the E105 Mello-mint Knight and the Matty T205.

This is a great idea. Since I collect only PCL stuff right now and I do multiple searches at all hours both day and night, I can keep my eyes peeled for the E99/E100 Bishops, D311 Smith, and the Obak Daley. If either of the Bishops or the D311 come up on Ebay they are probably Ben's, as neither come around too often.

I would help out in this area if I could, but being temporarily out of collecting, I'm not actively looking for cards and I'd do a lousy job. I think this is a great idea though and I applaud everyone for participating. Hopefully with these many pairs of eyes, this will be solved sooner if not later. This kind of group support is a beautiful thing...

I'll keep an eye out for the D304 Young, since I owned up until a few weeks ago. I'm sure I'll also notice the N162 Kelly, E106 Mathewson, and Texas Tommy Mack if they come up for sale.

I am pretty new to the forum, but have been looking for a long time. I had chatted with Ben the other nite on here, and am very sorry for his loss!! I am willing to look for the N162 Dan Brouthers. I will check ebay asa much as possible, and other sources. Also, I would be willing to give Ben my T206 Cobb greenback. Just let me know!!

See updated list above. Once all have been adopted, I'll create a new with the final breakdown. Maybe Bill can find a way to keep it "sticky" at the top of the board for awhile.

I am new to this board also, and frankly I am just flabergasted at the outpouring of support that I see here. It really is unbelieveable, and Ben you have my sympathy for your loss,but also my admiration on the obvious fellowship you have created for yourself from all of these board members. I know it means little now, but take some solace in that.

Study the images of Ben's cards that you have volunteered to handle, then set up an ebay search and call it something like "Ben-Search". Check it every day and also check 'completed items'. If the thief is really stupid he might put up low BIN's on a few of these to cash in quickly.

but I never let a T207 Red Cycle go by anywhere without checking it out, so I'll help on that one. Hey ben if you are reading this, who is pictured on the Red Cycle card? I checked your web site for the back and I got a Ramly TTT back.

Maybe a few people can get a temp e-mail account (easy to set up anything w/ Yahoo) and post a few places with offers to buy the card you're watching out for. Any ideas on where to post? Someone might jump at a chance to make a private deal...

It was in partial payment for his work on my website. If anyone else wants to look: back is great, front: excellent picture, one corner is just nipped, and lower right has TWO tack holes, but somehow managed to survive. Clean.

). I have since picked one up from Wesley. I'd be happy to help in any way possible, even offering to donate my Collins. I have a good life, and it would make me happy to help out a fellow collector.
