I purchased a comic book from a convention last year May. I had the comic book signed by Stan Lee, and had the comic book sent off to be professionally graded. The company that I sent it to have graded just recently notified me (after month of me unsuccessfully trying to contact them) that there was a shipment of comics that went out to be graded that was lost in the mail, and they are trying to claim this on their insurance. I honestly think they are lying and sold my comics. Nevertheless, is there anything that I can do legally to this comic book company?
Answer
You can travel to their state and sue them, probably in small claims court.
Answer
What is is worth, on the high end? Comics is definitely not my thing, but I believe Stan Lee's autograph is definitely not a rare, valuable autograph. Then consider trying to sue them. Even if you could sue in your county in small claims, you are looking at putting more money out to file the case, serve them out of state ($$), and then be your own lawyer and try your case. Even if it could be $1-2,000, your time is likely much better spent on social media voicing your complaints (in a polite, professional manner). In addition, next time you mail something make sure YOU insure your packages too.
