Red Pearl 5-piece drum kit with blue tiger sticker
Description
I lost my red Pearl 5-piece drum kit yesterday around 3pm after rehearsal at Barter Theatre on Main Street in Abingdon, Southwest Virginia. It's a Pearl Masters Maple Craft setup with a red enamel finish and a white sparkle that catches the light on stage. The kit includes a 22-inch kick, 12- and 13-inch rack toms, a 16-inch floor tom, and a 14-inch snare; the snare has a blue tiger sticker and there's a small dent on the kick hoop. It was in a black hardware bag labeled 'P Kapoor' with a guitar strap attached to the handle. This is my main gigging rig and it has sentimental value—I've saved up for years and it helps me pay the rent. If you found it or have any info, reach out.

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.
