Thread already on this for more than a week
Check in more often
No.
Am I glad this was posted again.
I believe I see the package I shipped?
At least I can prove it made it to LA.
What is that guy doing with a shopping bag?
Cleaning up.
I keep looking but I don’t see the UPS employee that took my coins. I need a better screen.

Careful, guys- you could get scolded for posting in the wrong thread. Don't you know there's been a thread already on this for more than a week?
I could prove I wasn't here a week ago.
Some day, people will learn to stop using click bait titles and we'll be able to find things more easily.
Must be a ebayer.
Hoard the keys.
This is an abominable disgrace, and we, as a nation, should be ashamed that things have deteriorated so far. I am sure it is not yet over, and fear for our society. Cheers, RickO
It's really not about making it to LA, but about making it out FROM LA.

But that's the point! His post isn't where it's supposed to be, it's messy and spread out, lost strayed or stolen... 😂
Just go to a local pawn shop. You'll find your missing stuff, coins included.

Can they make these traps human sized and then bait them with Amazon packages???

Don’t they have railroad police? I see them drive by all the time here in my area.
Hoard the keys.
Were living in a third world country now, and its only going to get worse
I got a few missing packages as well, would not be surprised if it in this pile of stuff
Yea.............they DRIVE BY.................

I find it interesting on how one (a few) photos are use to bash this Great Nation.
I suspect these (same) photos will be USED for years just like the homeless camp photos.
The photos are real but do not depict reality.

How the heck do you clear a trap like that?!
Tough to do, if you want to do the live release thing.
(The photos are real but do not depict reality.)
2 threads that don't depict reality????
"When they can't find anything wrong with you, they create it!"
Yes like the reporter standing in front of a burning car and claiming mostly peaceful protests these pictures don’t depict reality. In reality, it’s probably worse then being reported.

These pictures showed up on Tucker Carlson's Fox News program last night regarding the homeless. Here is the background.
Martin v. Boise was a 2018 decision by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit in response to a 2009 lawsuit by six homeless plaintiffs against the city of Boise, Idaho regarding the city's anti-camping ordinance.The ruling held that cities cannot enforce anti-camping ordinances if they do not have enough homeless shelter beds available for their homeless population. The decision was based on the Eighth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution's prohibition on cruel and unusual punishment.
In 2019, the U.S. Supreme Court declined to hear an appeal of the case, leaving the precedent intact in the nine Western states under the jurisdiction of the Ninth Circuit (Alaska, Arizona, California, Hawaii, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, Oregon, and Washington).
Well-intentioned and informative, but here we go over the edge...
Actually I’m missing 2 shipments from the mint but Union Pacific in LA would only touch them if they are lost.
Unfortunately lost packages from the mint happen
This thread is OT garbage. No humor intended.
Shopping?
Many successful BST transactions with dozens of board members, references on request.
Don't need police, they only need DNR. C&R you know.

Meritorious points, but doubt any of us need homeless camp photos to recognize reality if we live in a city of any size. Just drive across any large city.
Not sure that acknowledging a problem that needs to be remedied is a bashing of the Nation itself though. In addressing the homeless problem there is definitely a fine line between helping and enabling whether on the community, state, or national level.
Getting back to topic of OP's post though, the same thing arguably relates to the evident increase in crimes such as the theft of packages containing coins. This thread is helpful in reminding as to the importance of taking safeguards, including insurance, when we ship our coins.
"The photos are real but do not depict reality."
Every one of those packages had an owner. The photos depict reality for them.
Much of Florida looks like that these days. Floridians like to throw trash out of their cars. There's trash everywhere. Freedom!
Shopping for those five fingered discounts.
Throw a coin enough times, and suppose one day it lands on its edge.
I live in Florida and I haven't seen anything remotely close to what was shown in the above picture.

It amazes me when someone feels this is just a spurious incident when "According to figures reported by UP, more than 90 containers were vandalized every day on average in Los Angeles County in the last quarter of 2021." Oh yes, I figure for sure these photos will be used over and over as they are happening every day. Realize this is just Los Angeles County alone.
Shipping the value coins I ship, I'll continue to utilize U.S.P.S. and insure them, but for those here who ship valuable, maybe even irreplaceable items, I believe I would use a bonded service to deliver the items, supposing PCGS, NGC or ANACS would allow such a delivery to be made.

I live in Florida as well. You've got to get off the major highways, which are maintained by work crews. Look around Dunnellon and Brooksville (recent siting of heavy roadside litter), or the back roads around Homestead and Florida City where borrow pits are filled with literally hundreds of thousands of bottles (I actually estimated this once at several borrow pits based upon numbers of bottles seen walking around the perimeter). Better yet, come out with me on a trash clean-up. I just pulled eight 35-gal trash cans full of bottles, cans, plastic, and other trash out of only a 100-foot-long section of roadway. The State even has to pay workers as well as crews of prisoners to pick up trash all the time.
good to see again ... better pics
Time to move!
