$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!

When Philmington said “card people tend to be pretty cheap on things others than cards” that’s true. I’ve dropped $2000 on a card or Game Used jersey but I really stress myself out over spending over $500 to get new tires for my car or to go on vacation. Definitely some type of disconnect going on there.

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.

What about the guy who accepted 80K in a shoebox at a card show and did not even count it. When he later inspected it there was only 1K in there. I think they apprehended the guy who did it. This may have happened at Atlantic City. I hate saying this because it may not be true in this case but perhaps many of these old time dealers are straight forward folks who are perhaps somewhat naive and too trusting.

@@SpitballinCards I'm fairly sure it happened at the last National in AC. The dealer knew the guy and had been talking to him for a number of days prior to the transaction. The fraudster was eventually tracked down as his identity was known and he was apprehended in another state. Pretty sure on this. Just not 100% sure it was at the National in AC. A desperate move not dissimilar to this because the chances of getting away with it are close to zero.
