Retrieving a lost travel bug

I've had 3 go by the wayside last year with cachers just like that. Grabbed them, seemed like that had the right intentions, then nothing! Will not reply to (numerous) emails.

 

Question: I have the COPY tags. Would it be acceptable to ship out the TB's fresh using them? Your thoughts appreciated.

I just sent one of my travel bugs out again that I know is dead. Cache was destroyed and the baseball card that was the bug hasn't been seen again. That was over a year ago.

 

Instead of using the copy tag, I used an old baseball that I had (same theme), wrote the travel bug serial number on the ball in three different places using my best Terrell Owens imitation (sharpie permanent). icon_biggrin.gif

 

It's sitting in a cache right now and I still have the copy tag if needed down the road.

 

My other MIA travel bug, I'm not sure what I'm going to do with that one. Maybe, I'll just let it lie there as a reminder of what can happen to travel bugs.
