@ A1, we love collecting as much as you do !
It has been terrible, I have had to tell people to keep an eye on their cards during trade days. Made me feel pretty bad tbh

Wow remember reading something about this at the time. Looks like its a lot closer to being resolved.
With the amount of trades and salesconducted online in this hobby particularly with overseas collectors trust is paramount and when you get a few bad eggs that like to ruin it for everyone else it really is a shame. I have in the past and I'm also currently helping out some members with getting cards from USA only auctions and to be honest its an honor that they trust me to act as an intermediary in getting these cards to them.
It's also a hobby to make great friendships with both casual collectors, hardcore collectors and industry professionals alike and at the absolute core of all those friendships is trust.

Disgusting behavior... why people do this is so cruel..
I had a tony Lockett signature card from 1996 stolen by a "friend" of mine when i stayed at his place one night, could never prove it though.. still haunts me to this day..
hope he gets the justice he deserves

Obviously a master criminal. 
Doesn't sound like it, but you would think that if he did just "come across it" then he would want to contact the original owner and say, this person has your stolen card etc etc. Rather than, hey I found your card, wanna buy it back from me.
I shouldn't have any opinion I suppose without knowing the ins and outs.
He brought it into Terry's shop on the 28th of Feb.

This is what the law says. Does not really matter if you stole it or not - its still against the law to have stolen goods.

the facts are simple. he stole the card and pretty much within the next day posted this

he shopped it to a member on here who has a bogut logoman. i messaged the member who i believed owned the bogut to verify, and i believe a couple of the mods tried to do the same. we did not get a reply from the member, which I think a pretty disrespectful act in itself

Bainy and myself also messaged this person, and we did get a response, if its the same person your speaking of, I let Clint know what that outcome was and I think I also told you Crack! Not sure, however you are correct in the assumption of card in hand=thread, or its mighty good timing.
Just have to say this is the worst thing that happens in the hobby, there is no worse feeling than realising your card/cards have been stolen. This happened to me years ago at high school, my binder stolen out of my school bag and whole PC gone! You have suspicions of who probably stole them but can't prove it and therefore your collection/card is lost forever. Being a true hobbyist you never forget it either. This is why all the good cards are not being posted internationally on ebay from the states! We need to protect our reputation, hobby and each others cards so this HAS to be treated with zero tolerance at all times!!!
Great work Terry 
hope this has a happy ending! I also know what it feels like to have things stolen last thing I can remember being stolen was a box of 08/09 Upper Deck First Edition it was about 2 years ago I did the right thing and was a designated driver for a couple of mates when I got to the party they had a couple of mates with them aswell that wanted to get a ride I thought i'd do the right thing and give them a ride. wasn't till after I dropped them 2 people I didn't know off that the box was missing... Will never do that again and I guess it was a bit of my fault but still! 
..... Hope all works out with this card looks like a nice one Great people on this site also
