Laugh at the guy. Those crowns probably could've fed 500 people from the country he runs.

Somebody should advise him to use Jabber and Ekiga instead of Skype. Skype is a symbol of corporate totalitarianism.

At least this guy had the wealth to recover from it.   Doubt it will affect him.  He can make more crowns.  Smiley

Although the value of the items was placed at around £15,900 but the King argues the collection is irreplaceable to his family and country.

More curious why nobody has ever tried to launch a palace coup on him, especially if it is true that he's been living abroad for decades and only seldom returns.  

Barely know anything about him, either, he's propped up by a superpower so people are too afraid, or it could be that he's not an asshole, because I haven't heard of him, he might actually be one of those rare kings that doesn't oppress their people much Tongue you usually only hear about people like this unless they're total fascists.

Nope, I've just tried to imagine somebody who leads over 200000 people through skype. And that makes me feel a bit crazy.  Cheesy

Should i laugh or cry?

Do you have an emotional attachment to him or his possessions?  Why do either?

Theft happens hourly, everywhere.  At least this guy had the wealth to recover from it.   Doubt it will affect him.  He can make more crowns.  Smiley
