Lost/Misplaced Chanel Sunglasses in Rochestown Park Hotel, Douglas, Cork
Description
***UPDATE*** I managed to contact the taxi driver that drove me home that Friday night and the sunglasses weren't in his taxi so I would have left them after me in the Rochestown Park Hotel in Douglas following a function I was at there on Friday 7th August. Nothing was left into the reception of the hotel which means someone at the hotel (a member of staff or another patron) picked them up. If you have my Chanel glasses in a black quilted case, please please please return them - they were a very special gift. Thank you in advance!!!!
Hi, I left my sunglasses in a taxi in cork city on Friday night; they're Chanel, black with white arms and were in a quilted black case. They were a gift from someone really special so am heartbroken that I left them behind me. If anyone can help I'd really appreciate it. Thank you.

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
- Garda 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 asking your local Garda station for advice first.
Keep communication on Lost.ie
- 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, PPS numbers, or copies of your ID.
