Description
Hi, I’m Dylan Hayes. I lost my Handheld and Console this morning around 9:15 AM in downtown Hickory, near the Harper House and the Hickory Museum of Art on 2nd Avenue. The handheld has a blue case, and the console is in a black carry bag with a blue stripe. I retraced the Riverwalk and walked across Main Avenue, hoping to spot a glint of plastic by the Catawba River, but nothing yet. If you found them, please leave a note on this listing so I can grab them when I return to town.

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.
