  • from Vancouver (British Columbia, Canada)

Lost your ring/cell phone/keys… Call ASAP 24/7 Service- Chris 778-838-3463

I received a phone call in regards to a lost gold wedding band in Richmond BC at a heritage house. The young man told me while he was playing volleyball the ring must have come off his finger, here’s the thing Joe couldn’t remember if he had it on or if he took it off and put it in his pocket. He searched for an hour with the whole team, but could not find the ring. They came back with a store bought Metal Detector, but still could not find the ring.

The lady that happened to work at the heritage House knew me from many many years ago when I used to buy Metal Detectors from her store. She told the young man to call TheRingFinders, and he did.

We set up a time the next day and we met in the pouring rain where he and his mother were still searching. I got my specifics got the location and did a north – south grid search didn’t find it during that time so I brought out the tape measures and did an east west grid and I popped the ring out of the grass!!! as you can imagine, he was ecstatic. You see this young man had only been married for nine months, a newly wed and you can imagine how that must’ve felt when he lost his ring. He’s got it back now!

I love my job!!!

 

Tungsten Wedding Ring Lost In The Old Orchard Beach Sand, Found With A Metal Detector

  • from Old Orchard Beach (Maine, United States)

⏱️ 45 MINUTES TO VICTORY: From a Panicked Call to a Found Ring in the Rain! 🤝🎉

“Hi, my name is Ryan. I just found your services online. I’m vacationing at Old Orchard Beach, Maine and I was playing a game of volleyball. I actually lost my wedding ring… I wasn’t sure if you guys would be able to help me out. My phone number is 603-***-****. All right. Thank you for your time.” 📞

I immediately called Ryan back.

He told me that he and his family had just arrived in Old Orchard Beach, Maine about an hour earlier. Even though it was getting dark and raining lightly, Ryan’s children really wanted to go see the beach and ocean. 🌧️🌊

Ryan and his wife said, « Why not? We’re on vacation. » 🏖️

The family left for the beach. They walked into the square and entered the sand right next to the carousel at Palace Playland, across from the Old Orchard Beach And Pier. Once on the beach, they took a hard right toward the volleyball courts next to Brunswick Hotel and Condominiums . 🎡🎪

While playing volleyball, Ryan felt his wedding ring slipping off. He didn’t see where it landed, but he knew it was very close to where he had been serving the ball. The family started searching, but the ring was gone—buried in the sand, out of sight. 🏐⏳

Ryan asked if I could help him, and of course, I said yes.

He told me they were in town for multiple days and asked if I could come down in the morning.

Now, my first thought was to go down early around 5:00 AM. The weather forecast was for rain all night into Tuesday morning. However, I wasn’t sure if the town’s beach cleaning machine—the Surf Rake—would be going out. 🚜🌧️

The beach rake could actually scoop the ring up and throw it into the hopper, and it would be lost forever. If the rake didn’t scoop it, it could certainly move it down the beach and way out of the search area. Both scenarios make me cringe. 😬❌

I told Ryan that I don’t like taking chances like that. I needed to search tonight, before the beach rake came out in the morning. Even though it was now dark and raining, it would still be dark and raining at 5:00 AM. Either way, I would need a raincoat. 🧥

Ryan and I agreed to meet at the volleyball court in 20 to 30 minutes. I just needed to get my equipment loaded up and drive down there. With all the gear packed, there was only one thing left to do:

“CHERYL, HAVE YOU SEEN MY RAINCOAT?” 🗣️🧥

Once I arrived, I walked the beach from The Brunswick for a couple hundred yards to the first volleyball court closer to Palace Playland. As I was walking, I could see a figure in the distance with a flashlight. 🔦

Arriving at the volleyball court, I could see Ryan still searching the sand with his phone’s flashlight. 📱

Ryan showed me where he had been serving the ball and where he had run up to the net when he felt his tungsten wedding ring coming off. The search area was very small, unless the ring had gone flying into the dune grass or outside the playing area of the court. 🌾

I told Ryan I would search east to west, pole to pole, from the net back to where he had served from. If I didn’t find it on this side, I would search the other side the exact same way. If I didn’t find it then, I would start searching outside of the volleyball court entirely. 🧭

The area he had served from was only halfway back on the court. I knew it would only take me 6 to 8 minutes to search this area. Since we were already at mid-net, I started my search there, heading west toward the amusement rides. 🎢

The beach and volleyball court were very clean and void of any targets at all when I arrived. I swung just past where Ryan had served from. Not one target at all. Very unusual! 🧐

I then walked back to the net to search the area I hadn’t checked yet. If the ring wasn’t found here, I would start on the other side of the net. 🔍

Within 30 seconds of searching the area under the net, I received my first target. It was a scratchy tone, and I wasn’t confident it was the wedding ring. But I needed to do my due diligence and check it out. 🎧🔊

As I located the target with my pinpointer, I removed the sand by sweeping the pinpointer across it. Then:
“THAT’S IT! THAT’S MY RING!!!” 🤩💍

Ryan had seen the ring appear in the dark and in the sand before I did!

The excitement of my clients seeing their lost ring again never, ever gets old. Now Ryan could enjoy his family vacation without having to worry about finding his ring. 🎉🥳

From the time he called me to finding the ring was only about 45 minutes. Time is of the essence, and Ryan knew that. He called me as soon as he knew he and his family weren’t going to find it on their own. ⏱️👏

After a high five and a handshake, Ryan and I took a few photos on the wet, dark beach. Ryan thanked me again and again for coming out on such short notice and in those conditions. 📸🤝

No worries—it’s what we do.

If the situation were different, I may have waited until the morning. But I just didn’t want to take a chance with that beach cleaning machine. 🚜🙅‍♂️

Remember: “If it matters to you, it matters to us.” ❤️

I have the best job in the world. I love my job. 🤙🪙

Engagement Ring Lost During Bachelorette Trip – Recovered in Beach Haven, LBI by Edward Trapper, NJ Ring Finder

  • from Lavallette (New Jersey, United States)

 

I received a call on a sunny Friday afternoon from Rianna, who was in Beach Haven, Long Beach Island (LBI), NJ, with about 20 friends for a bachelorette beach weekend. Her friend Sarah had removed her engagement ring to apply sunblock and set it on her lap. A short time later, she stood up—and the ring vanished into the sand.

They immediately began searching and digging through the area but had no luck. That’s when Rianna searched online and found me, Edward Trapper – NJ Ring Finder. She called me in a panic, and I told her to stop digging and that I’d be there within 30 minutes. I assured her that if the ring was there, I’d find it.

I arrived in about 25 minutes, and Rianna met me at the dune walkover. We reviewed what happened, and I walked down to meet the group—who welcomed me with claps and cheers before I even began searching.

After scanning the area where they had all been sitting, I cleared a few faint signals. Then I got a very soft tone that I immediately knew was the ring. As I sifted through the sand and held it up in the air, the entire group erupted in cheers, tears, and hugs. A very emotional and unforgettable recovery!

I’m so glad I could help bring a happy ending to what could have been a very sad memory.

Found Diamond Ring in Whistler Resort, BC

  • from Vancouver (British Columbia, Canada)

 

Lost your Ring/Cell phne/Keys??? Call ASAP-24/7 Chris 778-838-3463

Hey there! I’ve got some exciting news to share! I found a lost diamond engagement ring at Whistler Resort, and I’m thrilled to share it with you.

So, here’s the story: I received a text message late Thursday night about a lost ring. I didn’t see the text message until 5 am when I woke up to go for a workout. After my workout, I sent a message to call me when they woke up.

Just a few minutes later, I got a call for help. The man explained that they were leaving the next morning for the USA, so I needed to get up there today. I quickly scheduled a search for that day and headed up to help.

One thing he mentioned was that they had an argument and the ring went flying from a 3rd-story balcony to the snow below. Can you imagine?

When I arrived and met the young man, he showed me the area where they had searched, but unfortunately, they had no luck. I pulled out my Deus 2 and started searching, and after 20 minutes, I found the beautiful diamond ring!

I hope this brings some joy and happiness to the young couple during this tough time. We all have our ups and downs, and forgiveness is a powerful thing.

I love my job! It’s amazing how these things happen and how we can make a difference in someone’s life. See you at the nest search

 

Washed Away the Soap and the Sparkle

  • from Kilgore (Texas, United States)

On Saturday Tori decided her German Shepherd needed a bath. As she finished she noticed her wedding rings were gone. She immediately started backtracking. Did it come off while using the hose or the blower drying her dog? With no luck finding her rings her husband bought a metal detector on his way home from work. He read the instructions and watched a few YouTube videos. They both search until midnight with no luck. Tori decided to try a search online and came across The Ring Finders website and texted me. Just so happens I was off and with in one hour of receiving her text I was headed to try and find her rings. After arriving we spent a few minutes going over where the washing took place. To our surprise I found her rings in less then fifteen minutes. A day with so much anxiety ended on a high note.

Lost Ring South Surry, BC…Found

  • from Vancouver (British Columbia, Canada)

 

24/7 Metal Detecting Service/ If you have lost something don’t wait until it’s too late. Call ASAP- Chris 778-838-3463

I got a text message in regards to a lost gold wedding band in South Surrey at a rugby field. After talking to the young man on the phone it turned out I wasn’t going to have to search a whole rugby field because he handed the ring to his coach to hold and unfortunately during the first half the ring is no longer in his coaches pocket…

His coach did not tell his player he had lost the ring until after the game. The coach spent the whole second half looking all over the sidelines for the ring, but unfortunately could not find it. He had to break the news to the player after the game. The whole team got together, joined arms and grid searched the area where his coach had spent most of this time during the first half.

Unfortunately, no luck, someone had mentioned to call TheRingFinders and he did.  After talking to the player and asking all my questions and setting up a time to meet the coach the next morning so he could show me all the areas to search. This became a huge challenge, unfortunately, he spent some time on half of one field warming up the team, then the other half of on the game field, along the sidelines behind the uprights and on the other side.

He did not know where the ring came out or when it came out of his pocket, but we did know it would’ve been when he pulled out his phone because it was in the same pocket. He told me he had pulled his phone out many times checking how much time was left in the game so this made the search area huge.

I spent 8 1/2 hours the first day grid searching areas he had showed me, but no luck, fortunately the caretakers for the rugby house came out and asked what I was doing, I told him I was looking for a lost ring for a rugby player. He asked what time his game was and I said I believe it was the last game of the day,  he told me that they have recorded footage of all the game and said maybe I should ask the coach or player to check the game footage and see where the coach was during the first half, and when he pulled his phone out.

This was a tremendous help as it put me in an area the coach forgot he was in, the next day after one and a half hours of searching bingo! I found his beautiful ring and helped continue this beautiful story of what it meant to him to get it back. I contacted his coach and I could tell he was so relieved and happy. I can only imagine how gutted he must’ve felt even though technically it wasn’t his fault. Things happens!

I love my job!

 

Lost diamond ring while hand feeding tarpons

  • from Miami (Florida, United States)

This was one of my most interesting recoveries to date.  I received a call from a woman who was down on vacation and went to Robbie’s in the Florida Keys.  It’s a tourist destination and marina.  They have a section where you can feed the tarpon.  You can actually see them in some of the photos circling around me.  She had lost her ring while feeding the fish. They jump out of the water and take the fish right out of your had.  The ring was there for a couple days. I knew it was gonna be a hard recovery because that marina has been there forever and I’m sure there was 50 years worth of garbage there. But after about two hours, I was able to find it.  It made for some great pictures.

So if you’ve lost any type of jewelry anywhere, give me a call and I’ll help you find it. Call/text louis at (305) 608-1870

Lost Diamond Earring, North Vancouver…Found

  • from Vancouver (British Columbia, Canada)

Lost your Ring/Jewellery/Cell Phone/Keys… A Trusted Service Since 1987- Call ASAP Chris 778-838-3463   24/7 Service

I received a call in regards to a lost diamond earring in a park, after asking a few questions it sounded like we’d have success finding this as long as someone else didn’t beat us to it.

I blasted off to the location and met the ladies husband who showed me the precise area where she believed the earring had come off  due to her granddaughter accidentally pulling it off while she was holding her.

I did my first passover of the area with no success. I cross grid and still no success. The young man called his wife, I could hear him disappointed thinking it wasn’t there, but this is a very small item and you have to be patient. It took about 10 minutes and I found her beautiful diamond earring.

I understand Metal Detecting because I’ve been doing it for over 50 years. Miss it by an inch miss it by a mile, you gotta go low and slow, and you have to exhaust the area. It was so nice to see his smile and hear the story of what that earring meant to his wife. I love my job.
