You might want to cross post this in the original thread since you've got the serial numbers.

I hope their books are returned... if not, do shops carry insurance for this sort of thing? I hope they're made whole however it turns out!

Most established dealers have insurance. Not all of them do, but its a cost of doing business.

Good luck, I hope everything turns out for the best!

I heard a horror story of a LCS back east that had the "wrong kind" of insurance, and had disaster causing a near-total loss of inventory... but insurance only covered original value not current FMV. So all those GA and SA keys that were lost were 10-cent and 12-cent losses.

 

Don't know if it's true or urban myth or not, but still.... yikes if true.

Done!

Great news!

 

Just received a call from Phil and the books were packed and covered up for protection in a different box unbeknownst to Phil. We can call off the dogs and drop the hunt. All is good except for perhaps the helper who packed them and didn't remember doing so.

Whew!

 

for a great outcome!
