Collections can be replaced but people can't.  Hoping all our fellow traders stay safe.

I live near the coast of South Texas. and weathered a few storms (Harvey was the worst for me.) Hurricanes are scary. My thoughts are with everyone in the path.

Now that dust has mostly settled from the storm, were there any collectors from here who've suffered any damage to their collections?

In a vintage baseball card group I follow on facbeook, there was a collector who just shared pictures of what is left of his collection.  It broke my heart seeing the pictures.  I'm sure he wasn't the only one to suffer loss like that.  Hopefully insurance will cover.

I had a card that was at the ebay authentication place in Sarasota during Ian. It sat for 4 days, understandably, but arrived undamaged. 

Thanks for the kind wishes- We always get something here in Wilmington,  NC but definitely not like poor Florida- I had a new storage unit flood so I'm just getting back on here and catching up with everyone. Seriously though- if anyone needs anything within reason and aren't too far I help run a non-profit place where everything is free for those who need it- clothes, food, toiletries etc. We run off donations ourselves so shipping heavy stuff is tough but I am happy to give the address and hours or set up times for anyone near us in SouthEastern North Carolina or who will be.

  Thanks for the well wishes too!

   Cheers!
