A Brazilian distributor, Oderço, is seeking answers after a shipment of Nvidia RTX 5090 graphics cards, valued at approximately $470,000, disappeared from São Paulo-Guarulhos International Airport. The company, which has 38 years of experience, has never encountered such a situation and has received no official response to its inquiries.
