I've been looking for my 40% card for the last few days and will be spending the weekend looking for it, but what can I do beside looking as I'm bit exhausted turning my home apart, and getting on my wife and kids nerves. Heck I can't even stand myself , it's going to be a long weekend....
I called and spoke to the ladies at Emotiva, gave them the number as I have a picture of the back thinking it would have been a security tactic. Its looks like I'm royally screwed because it needs to be physical for the card to be valid...
I'm just venting, so sorry if I'm sounding like a donkey's rare end.
I'm if anyone is willing to sell me one, as I'll be having a fire sale to recoup a new one.
Cheers
Daniel

Ouch,that hurts! Especially since as prices have risen,so has the value of the cards.I hope it is a temporary situation and it eventually pops up.

I can feel your pain, because I have been in such situations many times, and I do hope you find your card. You can't imagine the number of times I have kicked myself for losing such valuables as credit cards, car keys, home keys, checkbooks, and whatnot, only to find them again when I have given up looking. I hope that happens to you too. You only have to look for it in the right place, even though, I know that is easier said than done. In the meantime, don't be too hard on yourself!

Thanks as my Wife makes it sound like I'm the only one in the planet that looses any thing. She purchased me a Tile for my keys, like that I can find them with a press of a button and you'll hear a chirp. She also became a backer for Wallie a smart wallet that will tell me its lost,nor left behind if I lose it or if some of the content such as a credit card is missing.. Etc, pretty cool, oh well it wouldn't make my 40% card! Aaaaarrrrtggggggggg. |

Unless you moved in the meantime, it's still in there somewhere. You'll find it in the most unexpected place and time, if you're anything like me and the things I misplace. Worry not (unless you were getting ready to order tomorrow!).

Worry not (unless you were getting ready to order tomorrow!). I really though it was in my CD rack, or in my book back that goes no where, in my closet.... I'm really puzzled as it could have been in just those two places... I'm chalking it up as odd as heck! |

I own a safe, and inside the safe is A lockbox, thats where I kept my card! Really! Truely! I have a strange feeling it's gone in some dumpster somewhere  hopefully not, but that's what I keep thinking. My wife and I lost our engagement ring years ago, we couldn't figure out for month until it hit me that we had some repair folks redoing our bedroom window. I thoughts I had my eye on them but there was a time when I had to open the door for one of the workers, and then the other had to leave a short while after! Not saying that's what happened here, but I'm getting the same feeling that I'm never going to see the card again sad to say. Dan |

I'm sure you'll come across it when you least expect it. Until then, try not to raise your blood pressure worrying about it and pour yourself a nice stiff drink to take the edge the off.  |

And if you don't drink alcohol just put a Viagra in a Pepsi and VIOLA! You got a stiff one... That'll take your mind off that missing card. Well - for a while anyway. |

It's a pain, but you're going to have to go through everything methodically.
Take things out of drawers, desks, counters, envelopes, and go through one piece of paper at a time, look in old wallets, and make sure you look everywhere you've already looked, everywhere you know you've already looked, and everywhere it can't possibly be. Go slowly when you do it, don't rush, and don't skip ANYTHING, even though you've looked there before.
Just ask my wife how many times she's "lost" things, and I've found them within a day.
I actually did the same thing with my card, and it took me a day to find it.

Make sure to pull the drawers out and look behind them.. sometimes those junk drawers get so full stuff gets pushed up and out and falls behind.
I hate it when I loose stuff.. it's like you can't rest till ya find it.
Good luck!

I stashed mine for years in a bluray case that started with "E" couldn't find it for forever, and one night after lots of wine I had this monumental space odyssey moment. It was like slow motion as I walked to the bluray case, opened the movie and baaaaaaaaaaaa baaaaaaaaaaaaa baa baa!!! Bum bum, bum bum, bum bum!!!!

It just had to be said! 
hopefully not, but that's what I keep thinking.
