I couldn't find anything on the TSA site other than airport phone numbers.

I travel with a head shaver in it's original box in my checked bag. I have been putting a mirror handed down from my late mother in this box for almost two years. It's a 1.5 inch diameter sterling silver mirror that was given to me over 30 years ago with my moms maiden name etched into it.

My mom, Diana, handed the mirror to me when I was 6 years old...just because I loved it so much. I have been putting this mirror in my shaver box, in a bubble wrap bag, every time I have traveled (average 20 times a year) for over 1.5 years now. It might seem a little foolish, but it's really ignorance, I wasn't worried about assholes at the airport stealing my property out of my bags until now.

There's absolutely no way I would have put this bubble wrap bag in my head shaver box without this mirror inside it. I would have immediately stopped and looked for the mirror before packing this bag in the box. Tonight I just opened the box at my destination, pulled out the equipment, the bubble wrap bag was still there, but the mirror is gone.

I have been ripped off by the people we are supposed to be able to trust when we travel.

Lesson learned. I will now travel with expensive equipment in my bags with GPS recovery capabilities.
