<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Last week over 200 packages of graded trading cards being shipped back to their owners were stolen from a Fedex truck parked outside the headquarters of Professional Sports Authenticator (PSA) in Santa Ana, California, <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/7705932/2026/10/19/psa-cards-fedex-robbery-sports-pokemon/?unlocked_article_code=1.KFE.mOWy.Q9hTXlXivilL&source=athletic_user_shared_gift_article_copylink&smid=url-share-ta">according to a report by <em>The Athletic</em></a>. 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>
