E-Bay bizarre transaction---my worst fear

so i win this auction ebay-- and a few days go by and i receive a torn envelope in the mail--looks as though it got caught in a machine? or something--don't think much about it except you can see the newspaper wrapping---its a fairly big hole and i wonder what the mail woman must have thought---i come inside and open it (those tough semi plastic oversized 6x9 gummy yellow envelopes that wal-mart usually has)--finally just cut the hole bigger with a pair of scissors to get it open--unwrap the thick newspaper from around it(gee--feels kinda flimsy for a graded card)--NOTHING--all i did was unfold a 12 page GreenBayPress-Gazette--not that much fun to read actually--so i think of the possibilities
1-Enemy's in town sneaking on my porch and ransacking the mail--not really any here
2-postal worker at facility that seller dropped it off at and knows sellers mailings
3-seller hoax who pre paid and sealed it--then tore hole to get card out
in other words not much to even consider--anybody got any ideas or suggestions?--this is just crazy--i dont have but $13 or so invested so it aint the money, just the ? factor going forward--i spend around $1000 per month off ebay and now its gonna be close to zero until something comes to light---a real puzzler

You can file an Item Not Received dispute/claim
at PayPal/EBAY.
If the seller had Delivery Confirmation, you will
lose. If not, you will win.
(not my opinion--just the jaded opinion of a well-known eBay master).
IMO you should tell the sender simply because he packaged it poorly.
If it's not the money then simply move on.
If you would like your money back, after you hear from the seller and he does nothing but
tell you to pound sand, file like Storm mentioned, if he is professional and offers a refund make sure
it's sent within the 45 days that PP allows.
You can tell if he had DC by looking at the envelope.

You can actually see the teeth of the sorter, spaced evenly down the side of the card.
I have had the worst luck with this card. My brothers dog chewed on two with multi-color swatches.
Raw: Tony Gonzalez (low #'d cards, and especially 1/1's) and Steve Young.
