Ray-Ban Wayfarer sunglasses, matte black, initials MR
Description
Hey, I lost my Ray-Ban Wayfarer sunglasses yesterday around 3pm. They're matte black with gold hinges, and there's a tiny chip on the bottom edge of the right lens. The inside of the right temple is engraved with my initials 'MR'. I think I left them on a small metal table outside the Starbucks on Howard Ave in Hyde Park while I grabbed an iced coffee. They were in a gray fabric case with a blue cleaning cloth tucked inside. They mean a lot to me — they're prescription and I use them every sunny day, so I'm really hoping someone turned them in. If you found them, please text or email me; I can meet near Westshore Plaza in the Tampa Bay Area.

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.
