ALERT UPDATE! I RECEIVED MY CARDS TODAY. ONE MONTH & ONE DAY SINCE I RECEIVED ANY CONTACT. JUST

Michael (msassin) and I, along with a few others participated in a group reholder submission to PSA and I also piggybacked about 23 cards of 1972 Topps Baseball with Robert (BOB) King who has a CU board name of bking. I have received no contact from Bob King since March 29, 2011 and I don't see that he has made any type of post on this board since April 9th. He returned some of the cards to board members who participated in the reholder but not others. I am guessing he thought he might be able to keep the heat off of him if he did this or maybe he thought it would make it easier to steal the card that he wanted or thought was the most valuable. He gave some of our fellow members an excuse Around the time of April 15th that he had a family emergency and he would send their cards out that day. Some members received their cards a week later but others still haven't received their cards along with no communication. Me and msassin have several hundred dollars worth of cards that haven't been returned to us. I will not lay down on this if I do not get my cards back. I would like everyone to know they need to be aware of this guy and be on the lookout for him on other message boards so you don't get involved with him. Does anyone know who I can contact to get PSA involved to help out with this?
I sent my cards to:

Bob King
2308 Windy Ridge Ct
Plano, TX 75025

I have found a phone number for Mr. King associated with this address of 214-402-7886 and I have found a spouse name of Lyn. I called this number and got an answering machine and it said this is Lyn. I left a nice message at 12:45pm today (4/28/11) informing her of the problem. I enourage you other guys who have not had your cards returned to do this also. If anybody lives near Plano and can drive by the residence then I would appreciate it because it is looking like I will have to drive to Plano myself in the very near future. Mr King if you are on this board and reading this then let it be known you can end this stupidity by sending the rest of the cards to their respectful owners or you can expect me to keep coming because you are committing a serious crime invovling over $1000,00 worth of cards and believe it or not you can go to jail for it. If you want it to stop then send the cards back and no questions will be asked. If you choose not to then plan on facing the music soon.

If any of you guys have any further information or suggestions on how to handle this then please send me a PM. I intend on getting our cards back, reimbursed, or hopefully seeing someone held accountable for theft. I also want to post the cert numbers and the cards that I piggybacked on to and the two reholders that I sent which have not been returned to me. I am posting these to make it clear that they are my cards and are considered stolen at this point in time.

    << <i>Gone by the end of the day?
    Why? Because someone reported a serious issue? >>


    I thought he was referring to the fact that Dean posted the same thread on the CMB and here as well.

    There is a lot of activity on the other thread ... good luck Dean.
    STAY HEALTHY!

    I just want to say THANKS to all of you that I have either traded with, bought from or sold to, and to those great guys who donated cards to me for my little leaguers that I coach every year. You make this hobby and this board fun and I appreciate your support and thoughtful comments in this ugly situation. There is always will be a bad egg in the bunch. I am just thankful that I wasn't depending on the sale of those cards to pay for something that one of my kids might have wanted or needed because I am sure there are a few people that would apply to. I am going to do my best to get my stuff back as well as the other board members who are affected. No matter what is going on, it is a terrible thing in my mind to have to be a cheat, thief, or whatever lowlife term you would like to assign to this person. Sincerely! Dean

    It is a shame when this happens. Please do not let it ruin your experiences on this board. I am lucky so far, all of my experiences and transactions on this board have been good, but as in life, there are definitely bad eggs. I am glad you guys outted this whatever you would like to call him, but the good members on this board must stand together. As another member on this board has said, "this is my therapy", and I hope to keep enjoying this hobby with good people.

    Once again, I am sorry to hear of your troubles and hope somehow they get worked out.

    I just want to thank everyone for their support. The package was dated April 27th so maybe all of the chatter on this board was enough to prompt him to put my cards in the mail. Dean
