Lost CDs near Ocala Circle Square
Description
Last Friday around 5:15 p.m., I was loading boxes into my car near Ocala's Circle Square after finishing a shift at the bookstore. My CDs—mostly 90s rock and a few indie gems—were in a black leather wallet case, and I swear I felt them slip as I turned toward the downtown post office. I spent the next hour strolling Circle Square and the surrounding streets, hoping someone picked up the case and kept it safe. Those discs were a link to road trips and late-night drives, and losing them stings more than I expected. If someone remembers seeing a small black case near Circle Square, that would mean everything.

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.
