I received a package this morning of Baseball trading cards instead of one of the coins I had ordered. I suspect the cards are worth more than the whatever I ordered since there are some Antique (1950's) cards in the package. None of my Ebay purchases haven't been delivered so suspect something i ordered from this site. I don't recognize the name on the package but is from Ohio!

Am posting this down on trading cards also.

    I would just return to sender with a note explaining that you received but didn't order them. Seems like a shipping mistake and they would surely like to have them back to correct it.

    It’s possible the items he did order were send to the person who ordered the cards. I expect it won’t be long for the three of them to figure it all out.

    Going to have them email me a shipping receipt for postage to whoever ordered them. There must be 200 cards in a 3" binder and it weighs about 25 lbs. Was really surprised when Mailman delivered since i didn't have anything heavy ordered.

    Thanks for the input!

    The sender and/or the party to whom the package was supposed to be shipped, might not want you to know the name and address of the other party. Don't be surprised if the sender asks you to return, rather than forward the package.

    Part of the problem is they didn't use their PCGS forum name or would be easy to track and I have multiple orders undelivered at present. Willling to do whatyever they want to get them back or to the Buyers address. No problem

    What about insurance on the return shipping. That is why contacting the owner is of utmost importance.

    I hope you at least kept a Mickey Mantle rookie card for your trouble. :*

    Nope, I'm not into Baseball at all. Figure it is a two man game. Until the Ball is hit, everyone is standing around with their thumb where it shouldn't be. Too darn dull! I did see Don somebody pitch the first no-hitter in Baseball history when I was in Jr. High, but haven't had in interest in the game my whole life. Football is more my idea of a team sport. Everyone has a job and if they do it well, they win!
