Norris Mauritson - Stole Amos Rusie, Now selling on eBay

[Alexcards]

Hey everyone... thanks for all of your replies. I stand by all that I have claimed. I was an idiot and trusted Norris because we made several trades via mail. I sent him some Old Judges and Gypsy Queens and a Parlor Base Ball game from the 1880s. Everything went well, then I send him the Rusie and he was supposed to mail me a T206 Green Back Cobb.... This is where he claims he never got the card. He claims to have bought it from a dealer in San Fran 2 years ago. I asked the Cobb County Police Dept to contact PSA to see who submitted the card for grading and when... waiting to hear back. I am 100% certain that it was not a dealer in San Fran. I'm not sure why my name was not where it was supposed to be on the regitration as some of you have pointed out, i've only been on here a few times. I registered many years ago, I will attempt to update my profile. I have no issue with sharing my information... I have absolutely nothing to hide. Alex Tymchuk, Atlatna, GA. Cell 404-218-0311. I'm only trying to keep anyone else from getting burned here... i have no agenda... I'm a small time collector on a limit budget, I was hoping to get my card back after all these years. Happy Holidays to All...including Norris.

Norris is the epitome of eccentric and I had some interesting dealings with him back to the alt.rec.collecting.baseball.cards days if that rings with any one out there. We had some odd trades back and forth with some unsolicited items sent back and forth but there was never anything stolen. Another vote for insured, trackable shipping........good luck to everyone in the mix.......

Tom--I have also dealt with Norris quite a few times in the past. Sure, he's not a mainstream person, but neither are most of us. I never had an issue with any purchases/trades with him. Obviously, I was not involved in this transaction and cannot speak to who is right. However, I can state that I always found Norris to be honest and trustworthy.

I too have not personally had any of this type of issue with Norris. Just a few weeks ago I did a several hundred dollar deal with him that went fine. That being said I have seen 2 other issues similar to this one being talked about....happening quite some time ago but just coming to light for me since this thread happened, and from folks I respect very much. They just don't want to go public. I would definitely say that, from what I know today, Norris has more issues than meets the eye. If this thread helps one person then that is a good thing. The lesson here is to be careful.
