That does actually sound like a valid point. The laptops, camera, spare change, juice boxes, cookies and backpacks all sound like stuff a school aged kid would take. The cards are the only thing that really doesn't fit in.

Spare change actually sounds like something a Meth addict would take. The drug has been running rampant in my area lately and if I accidentally leave my car unlocked, my spare change is missing. Sad, really. I would check the local hobby shops. PJ's is the only one I can think of down there. (its been a while) Also check pawn shops.

Good luck.

That sucks Dan...sorry to hear it. Hopefully your local PD will catch the lowlife scumbag(s).

Edited to add: I stuck it to the top so this thread doesn't migrate to the bottom too quickly.

Default Bad economy = More crime

I feel terrible for you, I hope you recover your cards and belongings. It just has to drive home the fact that we as collectors need to keep our items secure and safe.

Default Sucks So Bad

I know it wont replace anything but hopefully you had insurance. I will and I know the others on this board will be on the lookout. The fact that it could be a child is a very valid point and good insight. How old are your children if you have any? Is there any chance that when Dad isn't home they show off your cards? Also pawn shops and stores and one other had mentioned are a good place to start. You can pm me or post any serial numbers you have here and I will keep an eye on ebay. If we all work together and secure the cards maybe we can pinpoint the mailing address. Good luck and I am sorry to hear that this happened.
-John
