Weird. I was with a group of people on thanksgiving when we saw this dude mad stoked that he found the TV on our way to the makeout room. And we were all really full and really tired and really mad that we weren’t that dude.

did the police tell you that SFPD property would probably lose it? You ought to write to our hotshot Police Chief with that story. I mean, do they want people doing the right thing or not? And do they want the police bad-mouthing the police to the public? sheesh.

Sucks how that happened! BUT you did the right thing. Hopefully you have good karma now.

So, the cops not only took it, but told me I was dumb for calling them- if you call, they HAVE to take it. If no one claims it in a month, I get it back. Or more than likely, SFPD Property will ‘lose’ it, I’m sure. Lesson: If you find something on the street don’t call the cops; post it on Craigslist. Thanks for nothing, Mission Mission commenters.

Alright, so, my friend and I agreed to call SFPD non-emergency. I was hoping they’d say ‘there was a break-in at ____ last night, so it’s this persons…’ but instead they are sending an officer out to my house to talk to me about it right now…

I know I’m doing The Right Thing — but if I lose this TV because of you, dear commenters, I’m gonna be bummed!

Also: I once found a Sega Genesis on the streets of Oakland. Would go well with a 42″ plasma, I bet Sonic is kick ass in hi-def.

I’ve found some rather nice electronics in dumpsters in the past (iMac, Sun server, working mini fridge.) And considering that many residents treat SF’s streets like one big dumpster, I can see this being possibly legit.

Post a craigslisting lost+found. If nobody can produce a receipt in 30 days, it’s yours. Congratulations!

Stolen property. Call the popo and don’t take it with you, or you’ll be in the pokey yourself.
