Orange OP-1 portable synth with stickers
Description
I lost my orange Teenage Engineering OP-1 portable synthesizer yesterday around 3pm. It's a compact orange body with a white screen and black controls, about the size of a paperback. On the back there's a small cat sticker and a tiny dent on the top-right corner. I last had it near the Dixie Center on Main Street in St George, possibly around the coffee shop by the parking lot or in the small square behind the center. This thing is my main sketch tool for gigs and practice, and it holds sentimental value—it was a gift from my mentor. I’d really appreciate it if someone who finds it could 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.
