$2,000,000 Sports Card Theft At Card Show🤢
Sports cards are a blast. We love to collect them, invest in them, and build a valuable collection. The good and bad thing however is that some cards can become extremly valuable and targets for others to steal. This is the case and what happened at the Dallas Card Show this past week. A collector had over two million dollards worth of sports cards stolen from his booth. In this video we will discuss our thoughts on the state of the hobby, the Michael Jordan PSA 10/10 autos, and much more!

    The only time I've had something stolen in the mail is when Topps sent me a box of 2021 Bowman Chrome, and someone took it at FedEx. Topps couldn't get me a replacement either, so I just ended up with a refund. The most expensive card I own is a Pokemon card, and while I'd love a Hank Aaron '54 Topps rookie, things like this scare me a lot from buying one, even in a low grade.

    Excellent commentary. Lots to discuss but moving forward there needs to be more security and more awareness about the risks at big card shows. There's a ton of cash floating around as well.. As for the guys who did this they are beyond stupid. No attempt to properly disguise themselves? It effectively means they are immediately on the run. Unless they are linked to a big time gangster who pays them a few hundred thousand to take the whole case off them I can't see how they would even expect to profit. They can't realistically send them into to get graded as everyone is on high alert so they have to sell them raw and people who may be buying these raw cards will be getting lots of eyeballs on them to see if they are authentic, etc. Moving these and getting anywhere near what they are worth is close to impossible. Again, unless they can offload the lot to a serious criminal who is prepared to sit on them for a few years I can't see how they can financially benefit in a significant way. And I sincerely hope the dealer has adequate insurance and/or gets all his cards back, and that these crooks are quickly apprehended and packed off to prison - where they belong.

    Feel free to pin this comment. Hopefully some can find my thoughts helpful for the future. 💥 "SCUMMY SCAMMER" tips💥 * Aquire outside insurance. * NEVER buy any cards with PayPal "funds balance" always use your credit card or bank card on file. Your bank or credit card fraud department will go to bat for you if something ever came up like we saw with Paypal/Ebay issues in the past. Paypal, not so much. * Never use your company name, RUclips name on the return address label. You can alternate names as well when sending to PSA. * Cameras are much cheaper and small wireless ones have come a long way. I personally have a lot of them, but put one where they deliver packages. It's late and I may edit this later and add a few more things, my brain is fried right now. Losers just suck!

    It is complicated but they 💯 can get away with it. First those images are terrible! 2nd when they crack them they can sell them slowly to older people not in the hobby and not on social media that have no idea about the theft. And when they sell it they can also use a disguise and sell it for cash. They can even sell it internationally this way. But they will be lucky to get $500k for those cards cracked. More like $200k and they will have to divide by how many people were in the scheme. The seller did tell me he had insurance.
