Great news!!!!

They found both mine and my friends deck-box with cards. They had both been picked up accidentally by other people from league. I suggest that everyone going to PRs put their names on their boxes, and of course keep them close.

Happy Ending :D

It's great that you and your friend got your cards back!
 
Watch your stuff? It's really not that hard. You paid money for these things, and you wouldn't leave $25 on the table.
 
That really sucks.I would keep my deck and counters in my pocket.Or I would bring a backpack and keep it in there.I dont know why people try to steal your stuff just because they cant buy/find it them selves :/
 
It sucks to lose your cards. At one point I lost all my decks in a box. Very sad day.

That's why I always keep my collection at home at all times.

Congrats!!! :D i really have never had my stuff stolen.
 
You guys are so unlucky :(
I left my bag with a 3ds, 2 folders, my deck+deck box and an unopened pack of sleeves on a differnet side of the room at states and no-one had even touched it.
 
I lost a Pokemon Catcher at the Prerelease, because I left my stuff unattended.

One thing I learned is to keep your stuff with you at ALL TIMES (A messenger bag really helps). Try to keep your stuff in between your legs when you're battling, so nothing gets stolen.
 
Yeah I trust almost no one at my league unless I know them personally. Either they gotta watch it, or you gotta take the stuff with you. I haven't lost anything at my league, but I've known a few people who have. It's sad when you can't trust two thirds of the gaming community, but with so many kids around, I can honestly say I'm not surprised either. My condolences to Minty and dragon (and anyone else who lost something big, I only read page 1).

Try having three full decks stolen at Nationals like I had. This was before the Professor Cup so I couldn't even play a good deck for that. The really sad part is I had it in the staff area the entire time it was not with me. I contacted TPCi about it.

I'm very sorry to hear about that. The closest I've come to that is when someone stole my Ursaring CoL and he was offering it for trade. I knew it was mine, because it hast disappeared from my deck, and then I had no choice but to lose an uncommon and a common to trade back for it. Effectively, I never gained anything, but I lost a Cyndaquil and a Jolteon. :/
Plus, my opponents had seen me playing the Ursaring against them, they knew that it was stolen, but the guy insisted that it was his even when I challenged him.
So, I keep a few valuables with me at all times and don't ever lose sight of them. Heck, I even bring my bag to the toilet. :p
Plus, I can't imagine some Juniors stealing from me. I'd be all 'come at me bro'. But the guy who nicked from me looked like your typical thief, by actions and the way his eyes moved.


EDIT: My 1400th post was a complaint? :/
Oh, it's probably worth mentioning that I distrust players so much that if I see a card on the floor, I'll probably take it. I think I may have with a Lost Remover. Or did I give it to someone?
