I purchased a 2007 Topps Finest White Border Xfractor Pedro Martinez #1/1 from a board member on the Transactions board here a little over a month or ago. Card was shipped in a non-padded mailer and the envelope was received torn with a huge hole in the middle with a note stating 'Received w/o Contents' from my local Post Office. Ok, I chalked it up to bad luck. Hadn't lost a card in the mail in the last three years or so, so I figured maybe I was due. Plus I obtained the card for next to nothing ($12) so it wasn't a big loss. I was even contacted by a few of the Pedro collectors on this board about selling them the card if I wanted to move it. After explaining the situation I asked a couple to keep their eyes peeled for this Pedro card on eBay since they probably check for Pedro stuff much more often than I do. Well I get a message from one of our members yesterday asking if this http://www.ebay.com/itm/ONLY-1-MADE...0273565318?pt=US_Baseball&hash=item5d3229e686 is the card in question? Bingo. Sold by another Florida account (I'm in Florida as well). I messaged the seller asking how he obtained the card but have yet to get anything back from him/her. Now my question for the masses of FCB.......how should I handle this situation? I can't exactly get this card back, I know that. I won't get my $12 back either, I know that. But what I want is someone to be accountable for this blatant MAIL FRAUD. Either the seller bought this card from someone who stole it out of the mail, or the seller has a job at the Post Office and likes to open envelopes that aren't addressed to him/her. Either what exactly are my best options?
