    GregM,

    I think whomever posted that is just bs-ing with you:

    "only sent index card and received 48 leaf and 61 Fleer. seriously though, rule #1 of ttm is never send something you cant afford to lose. why would anyone send a $500 card ttm is beyond me. good luck"

    I hope you eventually get your cards back. I've got a nice Guy LaFleur rookie out right now that doesn't look like it's coming back as he's usually pretty fast. I've also got Joe Montana and Tony Perez rookies out from mid last year that don't look like they are coming back. I thought for sure I had lost an Ernie Banks rookie and he returned it to me beatifully signed after 226 days. I know Bednarik is usually golden in a week or so, maybe your envelope just got sorted wrong by the PO or something, you'll probably have a nice surpise one day in your mailbox.

    Mike,

    Thanks for your e-mail. The problem is that I received my ppd envelope back but Chuck forgot to include my 48 Leaf and 61 Fleer - which he apparantly put in the other guys envelope.

    Uh oh, didn't realize that. I still wonder if that guy is just toying with you though. Although there are a lot of people that would take advantage of this if they could, I hope whomever ends up with your cards is a member of SCN so they can contact you through the PM feature, as well as I hope they have a good ethical compass about them and will do the right thing. Unfortunately, if they go to a non SCN member or non CU member, they will probably just think that ol' Chuck is a way better guy than they already thought!

    Greg:

    Was that post on SCN before or after you editted your SCN post? While I love the site, there are quite a few eggheads over there that love to annoy with PMs. Good luck and give a try to what I PMd you this morning.

    I have a feeling that it's legit. Un f'ing real. I have no way of contacting this person. I've e-mailed the web site administrator...so we'll see what happens.

    The guy just removed his post this morning - I'm NEVER getting those cards back. I am just disgusted with people.

    Apperantly Bednarik sent Gregs TTM cards to someone else.
  • gregm13gregm13 Posts: 5,798 ✭✭✭


    << <i>What exactly happened?

    Steve >>



    On Monday March 27th, I sent a padded envelope to Chuck Bednarik and inside was a brand new fine point blue sharpie, a ppd return envelope and a cardboard sleeve (which I use for protection) which contained a custom photo (already signed by Bill Bergey), 3 cards (1948 Leaf, 1956 Topps and 1961 Fleer) and a $20 bill. On April 2nd I got back the ppd envelope with the custom photo and the 1956 loose (for some reason he didn't send back in the cardboard sleeve - which is the only time that he hasn't) and my 1948 Leaf and 1961 Fleer cards were missing. The next day another sportscollectors.net board member posts that he sent an index card and received a 1948 Leaf and 1961 Fleer card and then goes on to say that whoever sent a $500 card TTM is an idiot. I frantically tried to contact this guy, however he turned off his PMs. This morning, I checked and he deleted his post - likely keeping my cards forever. I'm out $320 and there isn't a f'ing thing I can do.

    I'm just sick to my stomach.

    there has to be a mod over there that can help you...

    ...on an entirely different subject your "cards for sale" link sends me to the PSA set registry page...

    I hope things work out for you...good luck...

    Keep in mind that he will probably not be able to sell those cards - once they pop up for sale, hopefully you or somebody else will see them. Hopefully he will have a change of heart.

    Wow sorry to hear this Greg.

    Did you screen save what he said? If so you may be able to get
    him to hand back your cards?

    Steve,

    I did save a screen shot - but I have no idea who this person is. The problem w/ sportscollectors.net is that you have no idea who the board member is. I've contacted the mod, however he hasn't been too helpful thus far.

    If the site owner will cooperate, you can easily file a Small Claims action
    against the guy who claimed to have your cards.

    If the site owner does not want to cooperate, you can file against him
    and the guy who got your cards, OR you can file only against the guy
    who got your cards AND ask the court for an order that the site owner
    provide the required ISP data and IP#. (Personally, I would name the
    site owner, but that is a tactical choice.)

    Some of your investigation costs may be recoverable in Small Claims,
    some may not.

    ......

    If I was the victim of such an event, I would definitely file suit.

    ...........

    I hope you saved a copy of the deleted posting. If not, it may still
    be cached on google. Make screen shots and print the message.

    I recieved an extra Gary Mathews card once. I posted to see if someone was missing it, someone claimed it and was kind enough to redirect to the orginal owner no charge. That is the right thing to do.

    Dont: Brag you recieved someone elses cards and keep them. Bush league.

    I bet that Chuck mailed the cards back on April 1st, so maybe this was his idea of an April Fool's joke.

    Wow that really sucks. Did the guy post the message claiming to get those cards before you publicly said what you were short? If so there is no doubt he has them, and is now covering his tracks. I don't know if legally you have a prayer. Either way good luck.

    I sent to Cal Ermer recently. He sent back my custom un-signed and did not return my 68T. Another member on SCN posted his success from Ermer, along with receiving an extra 68T. I contacted him, and he was very cooperative and sent the 68T to me!

    Hope yours works out for you Greg.

    Thanks guys - much appreciated. It looks like I'm SOL...but there doesn't appear anything that I can do.

    It's amazing how vicious many of the board members are at sportscollectors.net. They are like a pack of wolves.

    First. Greg gets stiffed on the Secret Santa Gift Exchange a few years back and now this. Sorry this is happening to you.

    However, I like what Storm advised you to do. Your case is simple and you have the evidence. Once you file the way Storm describes, you might get results before actually getting to court.

    Your situation is a hassle, but not hopeless.
