Thieves steal nearly 900,000 euros worth of Pokémon cards from delivery van in the US
A theft occurred in Los Angeles involving valuable Pokémon and sports trading cards, estimated at $963,000. The cards were meant for certification and belonged to collectors across the U.S. The company involved will reimburse customers for the market value and certification costs. The digital certificates for the stolen cards have been deactivated, and traders have been alerted to watch for the stolen items. The rising value of rare Pokémon cards has made them attractive targets for thieves, with previous thefts also reported.
