Phoenix Card Shop Hit by Thieves for Second Time in December, $90K Stolen
Thieves Target Collectibles Store in Double Break-in
A Phoenix-area sports and collectible card shop has suffered devastating losses after being targeted by thieves twice during the month of December. The owners reported that the combined value of the stolen trading cards and collectibles has reached an estimated $90,000.
The second incident occurred mid-month, with burglars breaking in and quickly cleaning out high-value display cases containing rare sports cards, Pokรฉmon cards, and sealed booster boxes. This follow-up heist occurred just weeks after a previous break-in at the same location, suggesting the business was specifically targeted.
Store owners are working with local police and sharing security footage in hopes of identifying the thieves. The collecting community has been alerted to watch for any suspicious or unusually cheap listings of rare cards online or at local swap meets.
