Description
I lost my Meinl cajón yesterday around 3pm near the Forum in Norwich, East Anglia. It's a natural wood cajón with a dark front panel and a bright red sticker on the side edge that reads 'Meinl'. There's a small dent along the top edge and a faint scratch across the front from a crowded busker setup. It stands about 50 cm tall and 30 cm wide, a sturdy gig-ready piece that I use for weekly busking and jam nights. It was a gift from my sister and it means a lot to me; I’d be really grateful to have it back for my shows tonight or tomorrow.

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.
