I had the following card coming back to me when tracking stopped. It was freshly graded so I do not have any pictures of it graded but it's a BGS 9.5 with a number of 14516646 and the serial number on the back is 23/25.


The last update I had was on Sunday 8/28. Fedex has claimed that they can't find it as well as that the package was damaged but couldn't provide pictures of anything or give me any more information.

The package disappeared in Madison, WI so please keep a lookout if you go to any shows in that area.

I will have a cash reward for anyone that can return this card to me.

Thanks

Is BGS offering any help?

Sorry to hear. I've heard plenty of horror stories with Fedex. Hopefully you're able to track it down. Such a monster card too.

They have been pretty quick to get back to me so far. It’s mainly FedEx that has been not great to deal with.

Sorry to hear that. Do you know any shops in the area it could have been fenced at? Might be worth proactively reaching out to those.

Terrible, hope the card finds its way back to you.

I reached out to most of them already and they took my information to keep me updated if they see it.

Just remember if you take any payout from BGS or Fedex and the card shows up after, you're no longer entitled to it because you were made whole when you cashed that payout.

Is that correct? Anyone know?

PSA lost a high value Herbert and they paid out compensation with the caveat that if it was found the original owner had the choice to buy it back at the reimbursement price.

I think if it's tracked down by FedEx or BGS I would have to pay any insurance back. I saw another couple posts like that at least.

Me too, I've definitely lost some sleep over it already.

I figured that if I'm in the hobby long enough that one day it would happen but really didn't want it to be of a card this irreplaceable.

I was hoping to give an update at some point but there isn't much information I've been given at all.

BGS is still at least trying to look into, FedEx hasn't been helpful through any part of the process.
