Police are appealing for help from the community after a man looking to sell a prized Pokemon card was attacked and the valuable collectable was stolen.

Detectives are asking for information after the valuable collectable ‘Pokemon’-brand card was stolen, and the man was assaulted, at Warilla on the NSW south coast last month.

Police said a 38-year-old man had arranged to sell rare collectable cards in a carpark at the intersection of Lake Entrance Road and Shellharbour Road, Warilla at about 10:45pm on Friday March 28.

The seller told police he was assaulted by a man purporting to be the buyer, before a card reportedly worth more than $8000 was then stolen.

As that investigation continues, police have released images of a car seen in the vicinity of the incident.

It is described as a red 2023-model Ford Mustang with grey stripes, and police believe the driver may be able to assist with inquiries.

Crime Stoppers: 1800 333 000.
