Here Today... Gone To Hell!

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).

Hope you fellow gunners will help spread the word and hopefully one day I will have my stuff back.

I hope you get your stuff back!

Here you go:

Thank you Jarmo and thanks for posting with pictures.

Wow man, sorry to hear about it.

If I'll see anything suspicious on ebay I will let you know.

Hope you'll get your stuff ASAP!

Damn, that really sux.  You collected some really great things.  That gray coaster is from New Zealand indeed.  That Chinese Democracy keychain is awesome, been searching that out for a long time, I know they came with the cd in Indian markets.  That belt buckle is killer!!!  Did your TSI can have contents inside or was it empty?  Was/is your collection insured?  The only problem with insurance (other than the expense and the claims process) is that some items are irreplaceable, how to put a value on those?  I will keep my eyes and ears open for you of course. 

I'm posting this in my facebook site to help you get this incredible stuff back.

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.
Also thanks alot for helping looking out for my stuff. It means the world to me.

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
