<\/p>\nRally Point Cards in Mandarin is bouncing back after a break-in.<\/p>\n
Store owner Jayme Neher told Action News Jax the burglary happened early Tuesday morning.<\/p>\n
At his store, Neher mostly sells Pok\u00e9mon cards.<\/p>\n
The store owner says the cards have exploded in popularity.<\/p>\n
\u201cA really, really rare Pikachu illustrator rare. If you grade that, it could be worth anywhere between three to four hundred thousand dollars,\u201d Neher told us.<\/p>\n
In his store, one single card can go for more than $1,000. Online, we found cards priced in the hundreds of thousands, some even worth millions of dollars.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Similar trading card stores have been targeted across North and Central Florida. Neher doesn\u2019t think it\u2019s a coincidence.<\/p>\n
The string of break-ins started on June 17 when someone targeted a store in Belleview, Florida.<\/p>\n
Then, on July 11th, trading card shops in Gainesville and Ocala were hit back-to-back.<\/p>\n
On Tuesday, July 15th, Jayme Neher\u2019s store in Mandarin was hit around 6 AM.<\/p>\n
The next morning, another card store in Pineallas Park was targeted, too.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt seems to be somebody just hitting stores and just hitting them quickly and getting out.\u201d<\/p>\n
The store owners believe the culprit is the same person.<\/p>\n
Surveillance video from the stores shows a person dressed in a gray-colored hoodie, wearing gloves and a headlamp, carrying a plastic storage container.<\/p>\n
