One collector says the stolen cards from their submission alone were worth more than $100,000 . [SnapHolo card prices](https://snapholo.com/en/pokemon/) ## What happened to the PSA orders in the FedEx vehicle? ![Illustration of a shiny graded trading card in a protective case on an open delivery box inside a parcel van, with a gloved hand reaching in.](https://snapholo.com/news/content/images/2026/10/psa-fedex-burglary-stolen-graded-cards-october-2026-body-ai-1-cover.jpg) Illustration: AI-generated According to an email PSA sent to affected customers, a FedEx vehicle carrying PSA orders was burglarized after it left PSA's Southern California facility, and items were stolen. Dexerto reported this on October 18, 2026 . Collectors of Pokémon, Magic: The Gathering and Yu-Gi-Oh! cards have reported losses. **Quick Answer:** PSA told customers that someone broke into a FedEx vehicle carrying graded orders after it left PSA's Southern California facility, and items were stolen. Collector SKY-B says their 104-card submission, worth over $100,000, was taken. Dexerto reported both claims on October 18, 2026\. No one else has confirmed them, and PSA has not made a public statement. The story spread on October 17, 2026\. That day, card creator SKY-B posted on X that PSA had contacted them about their missing submission . > "PSA just emailed me letting me know that FedEx STOLE my 104 card submission. Over $100,000 in cards just gone," — SKY-B, trading card creator (source: SKY-B on X) The 104-card count and the "over $100,000" value both come from SKY-B's own post, which Dexerto and Heavy repeated . No one has confirmed either figure independently. Here is where the current information comes from: - **PSA's customer email:** affected collectors posted it as screenshots. It is the only first-party account of the burglary. - **Collector posts:** SKY-B's post on X and a Reddit thread that Dexerto cited. - **Press coverage:** Dexerto, Heavy (also published on Yahoo) and Resell Calendar . As of October 19, 2026, neither PSA nor FedEx has released a public statement or press release about the theft. That means almost every detail so far comes from what customers have shared. ## What does PSA's email to customers say? PSA's email to affected customers says that a FedEx vehicle carrying PSA orders was burglarized after it left PSA's Southern California facility, and that items were stolen. SKY-B shared the email as a screenshot, and Dexerto and Heavy reported it . This email is the only description of the incident from PSA so far. > "After leaving our PSA facility in Southern California, a FedEx vehicle transporting PSA orders was burglarized, and items were stolen," — PSA, in an email to affected customers shared by SKY-B (source: Dexerto, Heavy) The email calls this a burglary of a vehicle. It does not accuse FedEx drivers or staff. As of October 19, 2026, none of the reports names a suspect or mentions an arrest. SKY-B's own post on X said "FedEx STOLE my 104 card submission." That is the collector's description, not PSA's . In the same post, SKY-B tagged PSA owner Nat Turner and asked him to "take care of everyone affected." None of the coverage reviewed for this article says who signed the email. According to Dexerto, Heavy and Resell Calendar, the email as shared does not give these details : - the date of the burglary - the exact location, beyond "after leaving" the Southern California facility - how the vehicle was broken into - how many orders or shipments were on board - the total value of the stolen items The email also says what PSA will do next. It covers compensation based on fair market value, capped at the Maximum Insured Value chosen for each item. It also says PSA has deactivated the certification numbers of the stolen items and is working with FedEx and law enforcement. Resell Calendar reports that PSA told customers more details would follow the next week. A notice from PSA's newsroom or FedEx had not appeared in public coverage as of this update. ## Which cards and customers are reported affected? The reported losses span four card games: Pokémon TCG, Magic: The Gathering, Yu-Gi-Oh! and at least one more collector's items. Each one comes from a single collector's own post or a Reddit comment. PSA has not published a list of the affected items, and the figures below are owner claims as reported by Dexerto. The largest claim comes from card creator SKY-B (@SKYBCards). On X, SKY-B wrote that PSA had emailed to say a 104-card submission was stolen and that "over $100,000 in cards" was gone . Both the card count and the value come only from SKY-B's post and the press stories that repeat it. No independent source has confirmed either figure . Dexerto also picked up three reports from a Reddit thread. None of them has been checked independently: - **Magic: The Gathering:** A customer said they lost a PSA 9 Smaug the Magnificent. They said they took it to a card convention in Miami to hand it to PSA in person because they did not trust the mail . - **Yu-Gi-Oh!:** Another customer reported a stolen serialized card numbered 95/100\. The card's name was not given . - **Pokémon TCG:** A separate commenter said their Pikachu card was affected. The set, card number and grade were not reported . Resell Calendar cites a crowdsourced list of about 383 stolen cards . Collectors put that list together from their own reports. It is not a PSA figure, and PSA has not confirmed how many items or orders were on the vehicle. | Reported item | Game | Source | Verification status | | ------------------------------------------------ | -------------------- | ------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------- | | 104-card submission, claimed value over $100,000 | Mixed / not itemized | SKY-B on X; Dexerto | Owner claim; PSA email to SKY-B confirms a loss but not the value | | PSA 9 Smaug the Magnificent | Magic: The Gathering | Reddit, via Dexerto | Unverified, single source | | Serialized card numbered 95/100 | Yu-Gi-Oh! | Reddit, via Dexerto | Unverified, single source | | Pikachu card (set and number not reported) | Pokémon TCG | Reddit, via Dexerto | Unverified, single source | | Crowdsourced list of about 383 cards | Multiple | Resell Calendar | Not a PSA figure; anonymous reports | Coverage from Heavy, published on October 18 and syndicated on Yahoo, cites the same customer accounts . Until PSA publishes certification numbers or a count, any Pokémon TCG card name or number linked to this theft should be treated as reported, not confirmed. ## How will PSA compensate owners of stolen cards? PSA says it will pay owners of stolen cards their fair market value, up to the Maximum Insured Value (MIV) the customer chose for each card. The wording comes from an email PSA sent to affected customers, which SKY-B shared and Dexerto reported on October 18 . PSA has not published individual payout amounts. According to Dexerto, the email says PSA "will compensate you for the items from your order that were involved, which is based on fair market value up to the Maximum Insured Value ("MIV") you selected for each item" . MIV is the coverage limit a customer sets for each card when submitting it. A search summary of PSA's Coverage page and Submission Terms & Conditions says the default MIV comes from the chosen service level. It also says PSA keeps the right to decide fair market value . PSA's servers blocked direct access to those pages, so this account comes from summaries, not the full policy text. Heavy explains the practical effect: the payout is whichever is lower, fair market value or the coverage limit the customer chose. A card declared below its market value would therefore be paid at the lower declared figure . | Scenario | What the stated rule implies | Source | | --------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------- | | MIV set above fair market value | Payout capped at fair market value, as determined by PSA | PSA email via Dexerto; Heavy | | MIV set below fair market value | Payout capped at the selected MIV | Heavy | | MIV left at service-level default | Cap follows the service level's default MIV | PSA Coverage page (search summary) | The open questions are about how PSA will set the values: - SKY-B, who says the stolen order held 104 cards worth more than $100,000, has publicly asked how PSA will set fair market values for missing cards . - In the same post, SKY-B tagged PSA owner Nat Turner and asked him to "take care of everyone affected," as Heavy also reported . - PSA said it would share more details the following week, according to Resell Calendar . As of October 19, 2026, no payout amounts, valuation method or claim timeline have been made public by PSA or FedEx. The Yahoo-syndicated Heavy report likewise carries no compensation figures. Pokémon TCG owners checking their submissions should compare the MIV on each order with current sale prices. Until PSA says otherwise, that MIV is the stated ceiling on any payout. ## What is PSA doing to recover the cards and stop resale? ![Illustration of a shiny holographic graded card in a protective case with a red security tag, next to sealed shipping boxes and a checklist.](https://snapholo.com/news/content/images/2026/10/psa-fedex-burglary-stolen-graded-cards-october-2026-body-ai-5-cover.jpg) Illustration: AI-generated PSA has taken three steps so far, according to an email PSA sent to affected customers. Heavy and Resell Calendar both reported the email from screenshots that collectors shared. PSA says it has deactivated the cert numbers of the stolen items and alerted resale platforms. It also says it is working with FedEx and police . Press coverage of the email (source: Heavy, 2026-10; Resell Calendar, 2026-10) lists these steps: - **Cert numbers deactivated:** PSA says it has deactivated the certification numbers of the stolen items. - **Marketplaces notified:** PSA says it has alerted its selling platforms and auction partners. - **Investigation:** PSA says it is "working with FedEx and law enforcement to support investigations." Resell Calendar reports that PSA told customers more details would follow the next week . As of October 19, 2026, PSA has not named which platforms or auction houses it contacted. It has not said whether any cards have been recovered. No FedEx statement has been found, and the Yahoo-syndicated Heavy report adds no recovery figures. The step that affects buyers most is the cert deactivation. Every PSA slab carries a certification number that links it to PSA's records. A deactivated number means that slab should no longer show as a valid PSA record. Before buying a PSA-graded Pokémon TCG, Magic: The Gathering or Yu-Gi-Oh! slab, buyers can check that its cert number is still active in PSA's records. That check matters most for the card types mentioned in the reports: a PSA 9 Smaug the Magnificent, a serialized Yu-Gi-Oh! card numbered 95/100 and a Pikachu card, as reported by Dexerto . PSA has not published a public list of the affected cert numbers. ## What does this mean for graded card prices? As of October 19, 2026, no outlet has reported a change in graded card prices linked to the burglary. Dexerto, Heavy and Resell Calendar covered the theft and PSA's response. None of them reported a price change for any card, set or grade . For now, the story is about lost property and insurance claims. It is not a market event. The only per-card figure comes from SKY-B's own claim, which nobody else has confirmed. SKY-B said the order held 104 cards worth more than $100,000 in total . Dividing $100,000 by 104 gives about $960 per card. That number is simple arithmetic from an unverified total. It is not a sale price, an appraisal or a market price for any card. Totals for the whole theft are also unconfirmed. Resell Calendar estimates the loss at $200,000 to $1 million or more. It also cites a crowdsourced list of about 383 stolen cards . Those numbers are the outlet's own estimate and anonymous reports. PSA, FedEx and law enforcement have not confirmed them. PSA has not said how many orders were on the vehicle or how much was taken. For people who buy or submit graded cards, the reports point to a few practical checks: - **Cert verification:** PSA's email said it deactivated the cert numbers of the stolen items, according to the copy SKY-B shared . Before you buy a PSA slab from another person, look up its cert number in PSA's records. - **Insured value:** Under PSA's coverage terms, the most PSA pays is the lower of fair market value or the Maximum Insured Value chosen for each item. PSA reserves the right to decide fair market value . A low MIV on a high-value card caps the payout at that MIV. - **Shipping method:** According to summaries of PSA's terms, coverage runs from when PSA confirms an item arrived until it reaches its next destination . The Reddit user who handed a card to PSA in person in Miami was still affected, because the theft reportedly happened after the orders left PSA's Southern California facility . Dropping a card off in person does not cover the trip back. None of this is investment advice. The pricing effect of the theft, if there is one, has not been reported. ## What is still unknown? The main facts of the theft have not been confirmed. Public reporting does not give the date of the burglary, where it happened, how it was done, or how many orders and cards were on the vehicle. Dexerto, Heavy and Resell Calendar all say these details have not been disclosed (source: Dexerto, 2026-10; Heavy, 2026-10) . The total value stolen has not been published either. As of October 19, 2026, we found no PSA newsroom post or press release, no public comment from PSA owner Nat Turner and no statement from FedEx. No suspects or arrests have been reported. PSA's wording is known only from the customer email that SKY-B shared. According to Resell Calendar, PSA said more details would follow the next week (source: Resell Calendar, 2026-10) . The figures in circulation have different levels of support: - **Attributed to one person:** the 104-card submission and the value of more than $100,000 come only from SKY-B's post on X (source: SKY-B on X, 2026-10) . - **Reported from Reddit and unverified:** the PSA 9 Smaug the Magnificent, the Yu-Gi-Oh! card numbered 95/100 and the Pikachu card appear only in Dexerto's report . - **One outlet's estimates:** Resell Calendar's estimate of $200K to $1M or more and its crowdsourced list of about 383 cards have not been confirmed by PSA or FedEx . What to watch next: - An official statement from PSA or FedEx that confirms the date, the location and the number of orders. - Details on how PSA will set fair market value for each item, up to the Maximum Insured Value the customer selected (source: PSA Coverage). - Deactivated certification numbers showing up in PSA cert lookups or on marketplace listings. Until PSA or FedEx publishes figures, treat the card counts and dollar totals as claims attributed to the people and outlets above. If you are buying graded cards right now, check the cert number on PSA before you pay. ## Frequently asked questions ### What did PSA say about the FedEx burglary? PSA has not issued a public statement. In an email to affected customers, which card creator SKY-B shared and Dexerto reported, PSA wrote: "After leaving our PSA facility in Southern California, a FedEx vehicle transporting PSA orders was burglarized, and items were stolen" . As of October 19, 2026, no PSA press release, statement from PSA owner Nat Turner or FedEx statement could be found . ### How many cards were stolen from the PSA orders? No confirmed total exists. SKY-B says their own submission had 104 cards worth more than $100,000\. Only the collector's post, as reported by Dexerto, supports those figures . Resell Calendar cites a crowdsourced list of about 383 stolen cards, but that list is not verified . PSA has not said how many orders, cards or dollars were involved. ### How will PSA compensate affected customers? According to the email SKY-B shared and Dexerto reported, PSA will pay each customer the fair market value of each stolen item. The payment cannot exceed the Maximum Insured Value (MIV) the customer chose for that item . This means a card insured below its market value is paid at most its MIV. PSA's Coverage page says PSA decides fair market value . SKY-B has publicly questioned how PSA will set those values. ### Were Pokémon cards affected? Reportedly yes, but no details are confirmed. A commenter in a Reddit thread cited by Dexerto said their Pikachu card was affected. They did not name the card's set, number or grade. In the same thread, other customers reported losses from other games: a PSA 9 Smaug the Magnificent from Magic: The Gathering and a serialized Yu-Gi-Oh! card numbered 95/100 . All of these are single-source claims. ### How can buyers check whether a PSA slab was stolen? Look up the slab's certification number on PSA before you pay. Heavy and Resell Calendar report that PSA deactivated the cert numbers of the stolen items and alerted its selling platforms and auction partners . If a listed slab's cert number shows as inactive or does not match the card in the photos, treat the listing as a red flag. --- ### Related Articles - [One Piece BASE SHOP binder price: ¥1,650, four designs](https://snapholo.com/news/one-piece-base-shop-limited-binder-vol-1-price/) - [One Piece Heroines Precious Box Price: 8,470 Yen, Out Oct 31 With 70 Sleeves, 10 DON!!](https://snapholo.com/news/one-piece-heroines-precious-box-eb-05-price/) - [A ¥4,730 playmat and one card: the Makuhari event set price](https://snapholo.com/news/mera-mera-no-mi-playmat-card-set-price/) - [Pokémon Special Deck Set MEGA: three 60-card decks for 5,500 yen, no new cards, card prices](https://snapholo.com/news/mega-special-deck-set-feraligatr-dragonite-gengar/) - [Heroines Battle Vol.2 locks play to Heroines Leaders;
