 Hi!  My name is Gary Bonin, and I joined The Ring Finders Directory to help people find their lost jewelry at beaches, parks, lakes, and yards.  If you’ve lost something special and need it found, call me.  I can help you find it.  I work on a reward basis if the item is found, 20% of which is donated to the Make-A-Wish Foundation of RI.  I do ask for a call-out fee of $25 just to cover my gas, up to 50 miles.  For more information, please contact me.

Metal Detector Rentals Oahu

December 7th, 2011 by

The holiday season in Hawaii is in session which means packed beaches and lots of lost jewelry. If you’ve lost a piece of jewelry, I feel for you… which is the main reason why I started offering my services to the public. Take a look at my page! http://theringfinders.com/Justin.Oshiro/#us-hi-oahu

I have a couple of metal detectors available for rent but why not take advantage of my experience instead? Metal detecting is an art… you can’t find something if you can’t decipher what you’re seeing or hearing… or both. When you lose something of significant sentimental and monetary value, time is precious… don’t waste it! There are lots of people with metal detectors here on Oahu and it is prime time for searching! Don’t give someone else a chance to find your ring by wasting hours trying to “figure it out”. Experience is key to a successful recovery!

The best part is that I don’t charge for my service – I work on a reward basis + the cost of gas (which I think is fair, right?). We live in tough economic times so if you can’t afford a reward, no worries! I don’t require one. I do this truly just to help. And I don’t stop looking for your jewelry after only a couple of hours. I look until I find your item or until I know I’ve done all I can.

Did you lose your ring at Waikiki, Kailua, Sandy’s Beach, Ala Moana, Turtle Bay, Shark’s Cove, Lanikai, Ko’Olina, Ali’i, Chuns, Bellows, Hanauma Bay, Ehukai, Sunset, or Waimea? I’ve found rings and other jewelry at each of those locations. Both on land and in water. If you’ve lost your ring or other types of jewelry, give me a call ASAP!

I sincerely hope to reunite you with your lost item.

Aloha,
Justin

Aloha!

I found a men’s white gold ring while metal detecting in the water off of Waikiki Beach. It is a bit tarnished so it’s not a new loss. Please describe the ring to claim.

Cheers!

Lost gold ring found in Toronto..!!

November 12th, 2011 by

I had a call from Ken on Thursday who told me that he had lost his gold and diamond ring early this spring in his backyard.

Ken was cutting branches and trimming hedges in his yard, and when he was finished, he realized his ring was missing.

He looked all over the yard for it several times and when it didn’t turn up, he assumed it was lost forever.

After thinking about his ring all summer, Ken found me on TheRingFinders, and thought he’d give me a call.

So, I arrived at Ken’s home on Friday morning where I asked him several questions.

He stated that he had recently lost some weight and was well aware that his ring was fitting very loosely, but didn’t want to take the ring off as it’s his wedding ring.

Ken then put me in the most logical place in the backyard where he thought the ring may be and started to walk back into his house.

I turned on my gear and instantly located a rusted , roofing nail. I put it in my pouch and walked two steps and got a very nice signal

that has that unmistakeable sound of a ring. Sure enough, I parted the grass and saw his ring


had obviously been stepped on as it was now pushed in flush with the soil and just the edge of the ring was exposed. I carefully removed his ring and began to walk towards the house just as Ken was entering. I said “Bye Ken I’m leaving now, I’m done for the day” and he just looked at me, confused. I laughed and showed him the ring. He was amazed at how fast the search was, maybe 20 seconds at the most.

He took his ring back and was very happy that it had been recovered.

I wish all my searches only took 20 seconds…!!!

I’m really happy you have your ring back Ken..!!!

Also, thank you very much for the nice reward on such a fast find.

Take care,

Mark Ellis

 

 

Lost Ring Found in Larkspur, Marin County

Lost Wedding Ring Found in Larkspur

Lost Wedding Ring Found in Larkspur

Wayne contacted us a few days ago to say that his wife Rosie had lost her wedding ring while gardening. She’d been pulling weeds, amending the soil, and planting new plants when she discovered the ring was missing. This was strange, because the ring fit snugly on her finger, and had never come off before. They had tried using a metal detector, but couldn’t find the ring anywhere.

When we arrived, Rosie showed us the front garden plot. It wasn’t large, perhaps 30 feet by 2 feet. We were concerned about whether our larger metal detectors would work, because there were railroad ties forming the front border of the plot, and a wall along the back side, and both contained screws and other embedded iron fasteners.

So we started by scanning the plot quickly with a handheld metal detector called a pinpointer. We found about a dozen nails and sprinkler parts, but no ring. Now we knew the top layer of soil was mostly clear of metal, but we still had the screws along the front and back to contend with.

We scanned the bed again with a larger metal detector set to discriminate out, or ignore, most iron. This is a tricky process, because if you tell the detector to discriminate out too much iron, you will lose the ability to find smaller gold targets like rings. But we had to be able to ignore those pesky screws.

It worked. About 5-6 inches deep in the soil, buried under one of the new plants, we found the ring. It’s a beauty, inset with black diamonds, one of the most unique rings we’ve recovered. Rosie was very happy to get it back.

If you lose your ring, necklace, earring or other jewelry in the San Francisco Bay area, give us a call. We cover Marin County, San Francisco, San Mateo County, Santa Clara County and the East Bay. If you read some of the other stories in our blog, you’ll see that we can detect jewelry buried deeply in sand, mud, and soil.

Lost ring found in Mound, Minnesota – Lake Minnetonka

October 27th, 2011 by

 

The date was Saturday, October 22nd. and I was heading out to a private beach on Lake Minnetonka for my very first Ring Finders mission. For late October, the day was pristine. 60 degrees and no wind, so I knew the water would be clear and easy to search. My client had called me looking for my help in finding her lost ring that had slipped off her finger while she sat on her Jet Ski close to her dock in about two feet of water. She described the ring as being a thick gold band with rows of diamonds and Australian opal. It took me about two hours of grid work with my Garrett AT Pro metal detector to locate it,  but finally there it was in the bottom of my hand scoop! It was a thrill to find it and get it back to its very grateful owner! Thank you, Sarah! It was a pleasure helping you out!

Its been a while since I posted anything on my blog – I just havnt had any calls, for my service. I managed to get a mention in my companies in house newspaper, but despite my best efforts I couldn’t get them to mention The Ring Finders.com or my e mail address, (I guess it must be against company policy). At least they spelt my name correctly !

Found wedding band returned..!! Toronto, Ontario

September 20th, 2011 by

I received an email this morning from Richard who was inquiring about my services.

Richard wanted to know if I could possibly help him locate his lost wedding band that he had lost at Downey’s Farmers Market near Toronto.

As soon as I read the name “Downey’s”, a light went off in my head…

A few weeks ago, I was reading the lost and found ads on Kijiji Toronto, and had read that someone had found an inscribed, mans wedding band at Downey’s Farmers Market. I was hoping that this was the same ring so I looked up the ad from a few weeks ago and contacted the individual where I  found out her name is Shannon. She still had the ring so I called Richard and put him in touch with her.  Shortly afterwards, I had heard back that it was actually Richard’s ring that she had.!!! They are both extremely happy…!!  Richard for getting his ring back, and Shannon for being able to help out someone desperate to find their lost ring.

You’re truly a great person Shannon for thinking about someone else’s feelings..!!!

I’m sure Richard would agree with me.

Take care,

Mark Ellis

 

 

Lost ring found……again.!!

September 18th, 2011 by

I love a good story, and this is a good one…!!!

I had a call last week from a very nice gentleman named Robert.

Robert has a cottage on Sparrow Lake near Gravenhurst Ontario, and he contacted me about his wedding band he lost in the water near his dock.

Last year, Robert was playing with his kids in the water near the dock, and he noticed later that his wedding band was missing.

As he knew it must be in the water around the dock, he went to a local Canadian Tire and bought a French Fry, deep fryer basket to take into the water and attempt to locate his ring by sifting all over the place. After hours in the water with his french fry basket sifting in the area, he actually scooped his ring..!!!

Well, guess what, Robert was playing in the water by the dock again this summer with the kids, and his ring came off again..!!

So, out comes the lucky french fry sifter for the second year in a row…..however, no luck this time.

Robert’s ring has been in the water since early July, sleeping with the fishes.

After getting the details from Robert, I called one of my divers, Brad Newberry who actually lives fairly close to Sparrow lake.

Brad and his diving partner and son, Ryan met with Robert this afternoon and began laying out a grid in the water near the dock.

After entering the water and searching for approximately 45 minutes, Brad and Ryan had located and recovered Robert’s wedding band.  No fry basket required…

Great job Brad and Ryan..!!!  Thank you both for helping me out on this one..!!

Also, Robert, we are all so happy you have your ring back.

Maybe we’ll see you next year…????

 

Take care,

Mark Ellis
