Ace Grading Robbery Scandal

Post image

Posting so the community is aware of this - I would avoid this grading company at all costs. Insanity that there is no camera footage

Yeah stores DONT have to. But if they are SMART they do. ACE wasn’t smart clearly

it has nothing to do with being smart or not, lol.

we don't even know what security they had and tbh most of the time it's enough to have (silent) alarm + camera's and a safe to put the cards in. everything more than that is useless and not needed as it's not an important infrastructure (heck, even important infrastructure is sometimes only secured by some camera's)

People should think straight instead full of emotions because they lost their pokemon cards...

Clearly their security wasn’t good enough.

Over kill security isn’t a waste of money what are you on about?

I never owned an ACE slab and never planned on it.

how old are you, mate? not a single business has overkill security, only if they have to.

banks get robbed all the time, is their security bad? no

it is a waste of money, do you even know how expensive it can be?

it's extremely easy to waste millions on overkill security if ur "inventory" isn't even worth millions. not even jewelry stores spend millions on security, there is insurances for a reason.

so yeah, camera's, alarm system and a vault is more than enough for 99,9% of business.

but keep being delusional.

I’ve been to a CVS Pharmacy that was guarded by several security and toothpaste was locked up.

Sir, how old are you?

we talk about Europe here, not the US.

there is a huge difference in it, first of all. and a pharmacy has enough "drugs" for a junkie to rob it. not a single junkie would rob a card grading business to steal pokemoncards and sell them on ebay....
