Robbery: Stolen CGC 8 Green Label Crystal Lugia

Hi everyone, I’m not someone who posts very often, but I have been collecting for over 10 years and have been an avid reader of this forum.

Yesterday, I wanted to sell some of my valuable graded cards and met up with an interested buyer in public. Out of nowhere, he hit me with a sucker punch and tried to get away with my cards.

I was able to fight him off and partially stop him, causing him to drop the cards.

However, in the end, he managed to get away with my CGC 8 Green Label Crystal Lugia.

I have attached a few photos of the card here. I’m going to attach a link with more photos and some videos later today.

The police are already investigating, but I would like to ask for your help in locating the card. If it happens to turn up anywhere, please let me know. The robbery happened in Germany, Neu-Ulm.

My nose is broken, and I am heading in for surgery under general anesthesia later today. The perpetrator is still at large, and I really hope he gets caught so that he doesn’t do this to anyone else.

Thank you for your time!

Best regards

Sorry for your loss and get well soon. Surprised this happened in bavaria, always thought its the safest most civilized state in that country. I do hope they catch him, will be hard jail time for him there unlike in NRW or berlin

Really sorry to hear you were assaulted for cards. I hope your surgery goes well and that they catch the guy!

Also what was this green label designation that CGC used to do?

It used to be for altered cards, mainly inked are the ones I’ve seen in the wild, but I’ve seen autographed cards have them too!

Also I’m sorry @Donny92 this happened to you, it’s really sad to hear this happened over Pokemon cards
