Blue JBL Bluetooth speaker with red strap
Description
I lost my blue JBL Bluetooth speaker yesterday around 3pm outside the Starbucks on College Ave near the HUB-Robeson Center in State College. It's a pocket-sized cylinder, cobalt blue with a bright red silicone strap around the top. There's a small dent along the aluminum grille and a tiny PSU sticker on the bottom edge, easy to spot if you're looking for it. It still plays fine, which makes it doubly annoying to misplace, but the strap helps me recognize it in a crowd. It was a gift from my sister and has sentimental value, so I’d really appreciate getting it back if someone turned it in.

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.
