    Several years ago, my friends wife was working at a very high end jewelry store in Atlanta. A guy walks in, asks what’s the two most expensive rings. She shows him, takes out one and sets it on the tray on counter. He asks to see both side by side. She says “sir, we have a company policy not to put out more than one piece at a time.”
    Guy looks at her and says, “you won’t show me both at once because I’m black! Right?”
    Then he punches her in the face, knocks her out, grabs the one ring and runs away.
    Broke several bones in her face and she struggled with social anxiety for many years as a result.
    Moral of story. Well, do I need to say it?

    This shit was planned very carefully. In a wide open conference room someone was stacking fucking chairs to blend in. Grabs the goods without anyone noticing. Looked to be the youngest of the bunch too. Word is they changed clothes throughout the day. This wasn't planned on the fly in a single day. Someone has had their eye on this dealer for weeks or months. The small details of this heist are too carefully orchestrated. The older accomplices are distracting the dealers to perfection. The female at the top of the frame is suspicious as well.
    None of them looked at any cameras. You know they knew they were there. Some thieves are simply brazen enough to not care and someone experienced knows that looking straight at one is a sign of nervousness. The guy bumping the kid is definite post-grab jitters but everyone else was calm as a glass of water. Even the kid bolting with the case. He grabbed that shit like he owned it and knew the most direct route out of there while looking normal. Being caught on camera and actually caught in the act are two totally different things. Luckily it only takes one suspect to talk and the dominos start to fall.

    Either the dealers were in on it or they are too dump to comprehend basic security measures. If they are insured the insurance company is going to have a big problem with their lack of basic security and common sense. Just because you have an insurance policy doesnt mean they will pay this claim. It looks shady all around and you are an insured customer also must take basic steps to prevent theft. If I was an insurance company I would not pay this.

The bucket hat and short sleeve white knit Polo shirts and their shorts could have been purchased at the Dillard's in Fairview, TX, which is a short 10-minute drive from the card show.

    It is not new, The best thieves are 12 year old kids in groups because they know that they may get caughty and nothing but a slap on the wrist. Easy to be distracted and takes so little time. Best theft I heard of was a guy went behind the tables walked until he found a table unmanned then took a cash box and like this guy a bag full of valuable coins. Kept going down and left from the other end. Every dealer thought it was just a dealer getting out.

    If they were this clean with the heist. I would expect them to have a good getaway plan. For instance, they could live a state or two over. By the time this was recognized, they could have a car with two license plates so they swap it out a few gas stations down as they go somewhere. This is all the theories and information I've gathered from the jewel thief who has a RUclips channel. They are definitely into the card business or at least know enough about it to plan this heist out. If I was them and I needed to get away with the cards to resell them. One knew of places that you could resell them to even if they know they are stolen for half the price is for sure the best option. It gets it off your hands quick you get money and you're on your way. According to the jewel thief, this is what he did. Now I would assume that is not the case for these people. What would work in their favor, is to crack the cases and send the cards across different grading services, slowly. And resell them to pay for the more expensive cards. This would take a very long time to sell off probably upwards of two years. Since there are multiple people involved in this, I would expect they all want some part of the money. Aint no way with that many people involved this heist is not going to get turned over.
    Honestly, if they get away with it completely, I think its more of an issue with police but I still have some questions for the vendor. Like bro, you really brought a case that's worth 1.5 million to the open public, and on top of that while taking a booth down that wasn't the absolute top priority to put in your car or whatever. Like dude everything else can wait, you literally have a large amount of money sitting in ONE briefcase while your entire booth is being taken down. Kinda stupid and weird they would just let that happen.
