Lad Who Sold Logan Paul Fake $3.5 Million Box Of Pokemon Cards Officially Responds

Paul purchased the first-edition base cards back in December and collectors valued it at around $3.5 million (£2.6 million).

Bolillo Lajan San, a known card collector, took to Instagram and apologised for the error before confirming he's given Paul his money back.

He said: “Upon opening the first edition @bbcexchange authenticated Pokémon case, we noticed that the boxes inside looked off and; 

“Sadly the case was FAKE.

“@loganpaul and I are grateful to @rattlepokemon and the Pokémon community for exposing this fraudulent case now before it transacted any further. 

“I have reimbursed Logan his 3.5 however we will see how quickly I am made whole from the sellers who brought it to me already authenticated in the coming days or if it turns into a drawn out scenario.” 

San will now be working with his legal team in an attempt to be reimbursed.

Pokemon cards are a hot commodity in the collecting scene, especially those from when the franchise was at its peak.

The first generation of Pokemon captured the attention of youngsters around the globe and we all have fond memories of Red, Blue and Yellow on the Gameboy Colour.

They discovered the decks had been sold fro an eBay account based in Canada.

Both Pokemon experts claimed buyers were not allowed to view the cards before buying them, with Paul using an authentication service.

He claimed ahead of the fight the card has only ever brought him good luck.

Fair to say he thinks different now? Don't blame it on the Charizard.
