BFC Dynamo contacted Pepe Mager for a co-operation. An agreement could not be reached. Pepe Mager held the opinion that the club should buy its merchandise from him, or simply buy the rights to the crest. And he later informed the club that he had received interest from foreign buyers and offered the club to buy the rights. He claimed that the crest was worth 200,000 Marks. BFC Dynamo on the other hand claimed that the crest should legally belong to the club and sued Pepe Mager in court, but eventually lost the case. Pepe Mager was repeatedly exposed to minor threats from the environment around BFC Dynamo and eventually sold the crest to Rayk Bernt and his company RA-BE Immobilien- und Handelsgesellschaft mbH in 2002 for a price of 50,000 Marks.
