Megan was with her son at Corona DelMar Beach. It was a large group of classmates from a local middle school. After less than an hour Megan realized that her platinum engagement ring was not on her finger. After a sleepless night she found my contact information on a internet search. She called me and we made arrangements to meet at the beach so I could hear her story and get a general location of where she thought it could be.
Megan didn’t feel the ring slip off her finger. It’s nice when somebody knows when the ring was lost but not always possible. We met at the beach and she showed me where she spent most of her time. It could have been dropped on the long walk across the beach from the parking lot. It’s a process of elimination. I would start with the area near the fire pits. Our only problem was, the beach was loaded with people with their beach awnings, blankets, etc.
I had all the information I needed. I returned at 4 hours later and did a grid search which turned out to be successful with Megan’s beautiful ring in my scoop. Sent her a text message with a photo of the ring.
Chris, Megan’s fiancé posted this on Craigslist..

Nice response to Craig’s list posting. Keep up the good work.
Thanks Larry for the comment.. The original call was from Megan who found TheRingFinders site. Her fiancé also went to Craiglist in desperation hoping to cover all possibilities for finding their special ring.. I included the post on my blog to show how he promoted TRF’s after it was found.
Thanks Larry, I just wanted to clarify that Megan originally found my contact information from TheRingFinders website. Her fiancé actually posted the Craiglist add later to cover all chances to find the ring.. He later posted ring found on Craigslist promoting TRF’s and giving me a public compliment..
