Blue Yamaha practice snare drum with case
Description
I'm really worried—I realized yesterday around 3pm that my blue Yamaha practice snare drum is missing. It's a 14-inch shell with glossy blue finish, a few light scratches, and a dent on the rim; it came with a gray hard case. Inside, there's a white label with my initials "P.P." and a small red tape mark stuck near the edge. It's not a priceless antique, but it's carried a lot of practice and memories over the years, and I need it back for this week's gigs. I last saw it near the Walmart on Prince Street in Clovis, by the parking lot behind the store; if anyone found it, please get in touch—I’d be grateful beyond words.

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.
