Hey Everyone,
Thanks for the help and assistance you have offered. I appreciate it.
Sorry to hear- I will keep an eye out on ebay for you.
Thank you very much!
Sorry to hear that, too.
Was there any visible marking about the content?
There were no visible markings about the content. I think the shape of the plastic case may have been what gave it away.
That's too bad, I'll keep an eye out for it. How much are these going for nowadays? If it was sent Priority, I think it comes with $50 insurance automatically. Probably won't help much, but it's worth pursuing if you can.
It was sent first class mail. If anyone knows the approximate value that would be helpful. A dealer I sold it to, was sending it back to me, to auction on Bitcointalk.
USPS sucks big time. Sorry about the loss and yes will keep my eye out.
You might also want to check ebay regularly or place an alert. Most likely they will sell there.
Did you use registered mail on this?
I will add an alert to ebay and I appreciate you offering to keep your eyes open about it too. It was sent first class mail (not priority or registered).
Call your local postmaster. Complain. Every US piece of mail reported stolen will open an FBI investigation. Give them the information, they will pursue it. I've done this myself. I didn't get my coin back, but I think the shipper actually never sent it and so it was closed and nothing became of it. She was very helpful and encouraged me to keep doing that whenever I lose any USPS mail. (Other than International, which of course, they have no control over once it leaves usa customs). Good luck - was it an international package at any point, btw?
It was first class mail going under a 50 miles. I've put in a report with USPS with pictures of it already. So maybe by some miracle it will turn up. I do not expect it to come back though.
I watched news reports with mail items that were insured or had signature requirements, that were marked as delivered, but actually stolen by the post men that were delivering them. Multiple surveillance videos showed this occurred at peoples houses, right at their front door. This was the reason for first class mail, but apparently that is not safe either.
I'm not sure how much its worth, so I have no idea as to how much I lost. Any estimates?
Thanks again,
SimplyRouge2
