PSA is one of the largest third-party sports and hobby card grading companies in the world and it reported to the Santa Ana Police Department that the majority of the stolen packages had an approximate value of over $963,000, but that amount could further increase as PSA continues the process of confirming exactly which cards included in the shipment were taken.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1044qizi _18mzr4b1 _18mzr4b0 _19wv7tc1\">In a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.collectors.com\/statement-on-theft-from-third-party-carrier\">statement shared to its website<\/a>, Collectors Holdings, the parent company of PSA, acknowledged the theft and that it\u2019s working closely with local law enforcement and Fedex as the investigation continues. In response to the incident the company says it has \u201cnotified marketplace partners so they can be on the lookout for rare and serialized items\u201d to help prevent the stolen cards from being resold. All cards graded by PSA are assigned a unique certification number that the company has since deactivated for all the cards that have so far been identified as stolen.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1044qizi _18mzr4b1 _18mzr4b0 _19wv7tc1\">Collectors Holdings also says it has contacted affected customers to arrange compensation based on the fair market value of their missing collectibles, but \u201cup to the maximum insured value for each item selected by the customer prior to grading,\u201d according to the report.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1044qizi _18mzr4b1 _18mzr4b0 _19wv7tc1\">In a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=YU9igTZ908w\">video posted over the weekend<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/@skybcards\">YouTuber Sky-B Cards<\/a> identified themselves as one of the victims of the theft and shared the response they were sent by PSA. They had paid $8,468 to have 104 collectible sports cards graded by the company, many of which are irreplaceable, and had opted to insure the order for up to $156,000.
