[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Don’t listen to the gaslighters OP. Sometimes things do get stolen by movers. Many companies hire temporary laborers and don’t vet every single person. They often work with affluent people while they don’t have much themselves. I’m not sure why this seems such a hard concept for some to grasp.[/quote]

It's not that theft is unbelievable, it's the nature of the missing items.

Who wants only 1 of 4 oil paintings...why was the 1 so much better?  That's curious.

Also, I come from an old family where everyone's "valuable" china odds and ends wash up.  It takes a lot of knowledge to know what is real and what is repro.  And what brands are quality.  And ornate old china is not in style.  Very hard to sell.

It seems kind of improbable that a thief would recognize the plates as valuable or have an aesthetic reaction to these items.

As a middle schooler, while unpacking from a professional move, I accidentally threw out a 3" tall folk doll that I loved because it was folded up in the wrapping paper.  I found its hat later so it had to have been in the box.  I also broke one of my mom's crystal wedding goblets by accident.   Two were wrapped together and one slipped out when I unwound the paper.  That's why I think breakage and puncture of the painting is more likely.[/quote]
