Welcome to the board. If you're going to collect T206's and participate in message boards, this is the place.

I'm still flabbergasted that filing a claim was your first move (especially since you sell on ebay too). Then followed up with nothing outside of the case, knowing another collector just lost money. When I requested within the ebay case to contact your PO (the last people to have it), you followed up with requesting to close the case.

The lack of concern or effort to help bothered me way more than $73.

I'm sorry it came to having your name sullied to express empathy or concern for another collector losing money. I really don't like this situation.

Since you offered to pay, I propose a $73 donation to the Negro League Museum https://nlbm.com/donations/ and post evidence on both boards of the donation. Within 24 hours I in turn will delete both threads or request a moderator to delete (in case I don't the ability to delete).

I will edit title of thread now and after deletion I will make a follow up post on Missing T206 with images of the card for record in case the card reappears.

Nice offer. I hope this follows through, it would be nice to see something good come out of this.

What you should be doing is apologizing for your previous comment.
Have some integrity....
THAT'S what would be nice to see for an outcome of this thread...
The sanctimonious finger pointers admitting they were wrong.

I commented based on the evidence presented, I won't apologize for that.

Then you're an idiot with zero integrity.
You didn't have any "evidence", with even the OP saying everything was circumstantial.
You even commented before the accused defended themselves.

Someone coming and saying they aren't guilty is hardly clearing their name. You disagee? Thats fine.

And someone just accusing another on here is anything but fact.
But somehow you agreed with that.

You did absolutely nothing to prove his guilt...
So there's no need for him to clear his name whatsoever to you or anyone else.

With all due respect Brent... He cleared his name and owes you nothing.

Thanks, I'll start browsing threads

Again, we clearly have different communication styles. I opened a case in order to reach a resolution quickly. Buyers have done this to me as a seller as well, and I don't what other information I would need to solicit from them as a seller. Apologies again is this offended you.

I really don't like it either and really don't appreciate the terribly negative assumptions you and others in this thread have made about me. I love this hobby and have made tons of friends in it. I'm not a perfect person or overly empathic, but definitely would have expressed empathy if it was a larger loss (>$100).

Done, thanks for picking an excellent organization.
