Some explanations I can think of:

a) He's super-rich and that's why he could bounce back so quickly.

b) The cards he's selling are mostly consignments (and the cards that were stolen were mostly consignments)

c) All the stolen cards were his, but the insurance company gave him all his money back and he bought himself some new cards!

Yeah, because insurance companies are chomping at the bit to write seven figure checks two weeks after cards of contentious price points were stolen.

It sounds like all the concern for his well being were misplaced. The stolen case was likely just one part of his inventory. Cancel the GoFundMe.

Rumor has it the culprits are known. And rumor has it they probably aren't in the US anymore.

Both the culprits and the cards, I presume.

Exactly. It was Moe behind the liquor store, who told me.

I don't really want to say except it's someone pretty close to the investigation. And it's not the victim. I haven't spoken with him in 6 months or more.....
