Description
I left a stack of old DVDs in a black binder on a chair outside the Shoals Theatre around 8:15 pm last Friday in Florence. It was after the show on Court Street; I turned my back for a minute to say hello to a friend, and when I looked back the chair was empty, and the binder was gone. The discs include a few classic films and a local documentary, not priceless but sentimental and hard to replace. I searched the sidewalks and cafe courtyards along Court Street, then walked toward the Florence-Lauderdale Public Library, but no luck yet. If found, please keep them safe.

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.
