    $10,000 Robbery at New York Card Shop Sparks New Troubles for Tom Brady: Report

    Seven-time Super Bowl champion Tom Brady’s trading card business, CardVault, was reportedly a victim of a robbery that took place last month.

    The incident unfolded on October 20 at CardVault’s SoHo location, where surveillance captured a man attempting to buy baseball and Pokemon cards. When his payment method was declined, the suspect according to the NYPD’s account to FOX 5 New York, exploited the touch-to-pay system to leave the store with merchandise valued at approximately $9,700. Law enforcement is still investigating how exactly the suspect managed to bypass the payment process.

    The collectibles market has become a new target for criminal activity as rare card prices have skyrocketed in recent years. A Massachusetts card shop was at the receiving end of a devastating robbery with losses exceeding $110,000.

    The 2024 Dallas Card Show heist was another such instance where thieves made off with over $2 million in valuable baseball cards, including a 1952 Mickey Mantle card alone worth $175,000.
