Description
I lost my black digital metronome yesterday around 3pm near the Oneonta Public Library on Main Street. It's a palm-sized device, about 3x2 inches, with a white display and a bright red LED, and there's a tiny scratch on the back bottom corner plus a small blue star sticker with my initials 'AF' on the side. This metronome is one of my miscellaneous musical items and it’s tied to practice for gigs, so it carries sentimental value and I really need it back. If you’ve seen it, you can reach me at [email protected].

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.
