Nintendo Switch OLED with neon Joy-Cons
Description
I lost my Nintendo Switch OLED yesterday around 3pm near the Capitol Building steps on 4th Ave in Helena, close to Last Chance Gulch. It's in a white protective case with a dragon sticker on the back, inside a blue silicone sleeve. The screen has a tiny scratch on the bottom-right corner, and the neon red/blue Joy-Cons stand out. This device is sentimental to me because it was a gift from my sister and we played it most weekends after practice—really hoping someone who picked it up can help get it back. If you found it, the listed email will be enough to reach out and arrange a safe meetup downtown Helena.

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.
