Description
I spent a sunny afternoon at Capitol Market in Charleston and set aside a tote of DVDs for a movie night. By 4:00 p.m. on Friday I realized the tote slipped from my shoulder, likely somewhere between the farmer stalls and the steps to the parking garage. I’ve gone back twice, looking under benches and behind stalls, but nothing turned up. The discs include a mix of classic Westerns and a couple of indie documentaries, and they’re sentimental to me. If you found them, please keep them safe until I can retrieve them.

How to safely get your item back
A short checklist to protect you and the item during the handoff.
Verify the finder before meeting
- Ask them to describe a detail not shown in your listing, such as an engraving, scratch, or contents.
- Request a clear photo of the item from an angle you did not post.
- Do not pay any release, shipping, or storage fee.
- Do not share your full address until you have verified them.
Meet in a safe, public place
- Police stations, café entrances, transport hubs, and shop foyers all work.
- Meet during daylight hours where there is CCTV and foot traffic.
- Avoid private homes, car parks at night, or isolated locations.
Bring someone with you
- Tell a friend or family member where you are meeting and when.
- Share your live location with them during the handoff.
- For high-value items, consider contacting your local police station for advice first.
Keep communication on lostandfound.io
- Use the in-app message thread so there is a record if something goes wrong.
- Do not move to WhatsApp, SMS, or email until you have exchanged a verifying detail.
- Never share bank details, government ID numbers, or copies of your ID.
