That’s amazing. Congrats, Ryan!

Great to hear Ryan! I was sure ML would hold up their end.

[ValKehl]

Wonderful news, Ryan! I'm very happy for you.

[Rhotchkiss]

I was never worried. I think it’s especially cool that they paid me out even though those cards have not been returned; and who knows how many of the buyers of the stolen cards even opted to continue with their purchase and have paid. ML has 100% done the right thing by this consignor (and their primary duty/obligation is to their consignors).

[jayshum]

If ML is paying out consignors even though the stolen cards are still being held as evidence, does that indicate that ML expects to get possession of the cards soon? Does anyone know if they have actually taken payment from any winners of the stolen cards, and if so, what the winners were told as to when to expect to receive their purchased cards?

Also, if they are paying consigners then ML will own whatever cards that winning bidders decide not to pay for. I would guess that they will eventually include whatever cards that remain in a future auction, but I would hope that they would wait until they actually have possession of them before doing that.

this is where I get my opinion of where the evidence is until trial. I'm not sure though?

So wait, have they shipped these cards yet? I am confused.

And did anyone on this board who "purchased" one of these cards actually buy and receive the card?

Ummm...start with post 992. Nothing to be confused about.

But what if the insurance company required that the cards be shipped? In spite of the fact that the police still had them in custody??

And if the police are the custodians, does that mean the cops should have a mop and mop bucket as well?

You joke, but reading this thread counts for 3 credit hours in pre-law programs at many prestigious universities.

I see it now, thanks. Hopefully the buyers get these cards in a timely fashion.

Bumping this because I’m interested in what’s gonna happen to these dingbats .
According to the link Jayshum Posted (above) they go back to court tomorrow

[RhodeyRhode]

Great job by Memory Lane....Makes you wonder what other auction houses would have done in same situation....As I bet not all would have done the right thing....but would think if insured and got insurance money they would.

cannot find any follow up on this -
Was even hoping for updates on the Ted Williams and Ramly Johnson .
Perhaps I’m expecting too much (?)
guess once an arrest is made the stories over

Which updates are you hoping to learn about? Prison sentence for the perps? Just what happened to the last 2 cards? Whether buyers actually completed their purchases?

Does seem like sellers got paid, so there's that.

Yep all that stuff.
Of course My thinking any collector would be curious about this isn’t the first assumption of mine thats been off .
Oh well not terribly important anyway .. I guess

I don't think we've heard anything on the last 2 cards, although it's possible that I'm just out of the loop.

I suspect the trial for the perps will take some time, even if they go with a plea bargain. So pack your patience there.

While it's anybody's guess whether the buyers actually consummated their purposes once the cards were found, I would guess that the vast preponderance did. But maybe if one of the stolen cards re-appears in the next ML auction, that could be a sign that the high bidder decided to pass. Either that or they've just decided to try to flip it to cash in on the notoriety of the case.

Thanks
They had a court date July 15 that’s kind of why I thought There’d be some news

I will say I am curious if any of the stolen cards have reached their final destination yet.
