This is really a bummer hopefully they find the bulk of the cards. Just seems too difficult to unload that many with out drawing attention. 
 
On a side note I couldn't help thinking of Fast and Furious, maybe someone is preparing for race wars...

And everybody suffers except for the thief, can't help but sit back and say "That ain't right!"

My guess is that they would be used to make money mining not to resell. Of course if somewhere is using massive amounts of power feeding a whole shipment of cards it might be pretty easy to find.

I still wonder and hope we hear more on this.  

- Was the trailer stolen as a whole?
 
- Was it a random act and only a few GPUs were taken or was it all the GPU pallets?
 
- Were there other merch that wasn't taken?
 
- Did this shipment just land?
 
- SUVs, sedans, etc. used?
 
- Was this at a secure location with security cams?
 
I just hope they have enough LEO resources for this investigation. 
 
I also wonder if the gov. is involved.




I think this is a good point to bring up now.
Obviously we're all clueless as to what law enforcement might be doing with this case at the moment, but hopefully more info can be released over time
 
If you don't already know, you would be surprised what "the internet" can find when solving crimes, many times doing better and uncovering more than the actual police.  (example being the Gabby Petito case from a couple month back).  
 
Shoot, if I were EVGA I might even throw down a reward for info leading to the arrest of individuals..  $20k + Kingpin card of choice   You would have the whole internet looking!

Publish all the numbers I guarantee they will be on ebay or Facebook. Then we can turn them in to the authorities

If you are able to get access to the serial number from the seller, then you can confirm it on our Check Warranty page.


Late to this tread, but, there seems to be an issue with the warranty checker page, or i don't get what it's telling me. I entered the serial for a purchase made directly through EVGA, it was a step-up and registered in my name by EVGA before shipping. I can see this GPU along with my other registered products in my product page with a 5 year warranty. Yet the warranty page  simply states "We are unable to determine the warranty for the Serial Number. Please contact Customer Service for help.". How does this tell me if the card is stolen, already registered or new and able to be registered? 
 
Perhaps i'm missing something, but shouldn't the status be a little more definitive?

 
Looks like this was just a bug on the page with serial numbers on products received from Step-Up.  It should be resolved now, so please let me know if you still see this message.
 



I can confirm that warranty information is actually being shown now, however, for the sake of completeness, It would appear the default product warranty is being used as the basis for the calculation, as opposed to the actual warranty applicable to the given serial number.
On the warranty checker page i'm seeing:
 
Warranty Length: 3 Year('s)
Warranty Status: In Warranty
Days Left: 1095
 
Whereas In the My Products page i'm seeing :-
Length: 5 years from date of purchase
Status: In Warranty
Days Left: 1817
 
Days left on the warranty checker will seemingly always show exactly 3 years.

Extended warranties never transfer. 3 years is the Maximum length of time a warranty will transfer. It will never match your extended warranty.

This.  Why steal them unless you were going to mine them. Mine them for 3 years until warrantees are dead. Then dump them on ebay or Facebook or Craigs list.
