Memorabilias stolen


Recommended Posts

I have been so unfortunate to have had a break-in where som very unique GNR items got stolen. 20 years of hard work was crushed in just a couple of minutes and now I try to spread the word as quickly as possible in hope that someone hears about these items. The items was stolen from Copenhagen, Denmark yesterday.

Please help spred the word and I offer an award on up to USD 1.500 (depending on how muh I get back) if someone can help me reclaim my lost items.

The following has been stolen:

Elvi Award presented to Guns N' Roses. 30-40 cm high and pretty heavy.
Promo belt buckle given to Dizzy Reed under the UYI tour (all band members got one).

Sorry for taking so long getting back in here. Have been quite busy lately, but I regularly check this thread, to see if anything new has come up. But here's a short update from me.

I want to thank you guys for your kind thoughts and understanding. As you can imaging it has been devastating to lose these items, but I feel like less of a weirdo to see that it's actually ok to feel this way about some material stuff.
I have been thinking alot about if it's anyone I know, but haven't been able to figure out yet who it should be. But I really hope it's not. So creepy if you have people like that in your life. 

Else nothing new to report. No new clues or anything. But again, thanks for your thoughts and effort to look out for this.

Best regards
Ulrik

You keeping an eye on local second hand shops, auction houses, and even record stores that stock merch etc?   Put some posters up in or near these places if you can.  keep an eye on ebay, eil.com, local gumtree\craigslist, facebook buy and sell pages near you etc too...  

Not a good feeling, I had a heap of cd's and boots stolen in the 90's (along with near everything else I owned!)
