Description
I lost my silver Yamaha trumpet yesterday around 3pm near the Roseburg Public Library on Oak Street, outside the cafe across from the bookshop. It's a Yamaha YTR-2330, silver-plated with a few nicks on the bell and lacquer worn thin along the slides; it lives in a black hard-shell case with a red velvet lining and a cracked top latch. The mouthpiece is engraved with the initials 'PP' and there's a small dent near the bell as a distinctive feature. It was a gift from my late uncle, so it means a lot to me and I really need it back if anyone happened to find it.

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.
