I registered my bike after it was stolen and a few weeks later got a message from someone who had bought my bike off of someone on the street, checked the Index and realized it was stolen. They just wanted to get it back to the rightful owner. I'm so grateful for their kindness, and so happy to have my bike back! vertaald uit het Engels

Was contacted that my bike was listed on Craigslist under the lost and found category with the title, "I stole your bike and want to return it". Strangely enough, I met up with the bike thief and was given back my bike. Would have never found it on craigslist if I didn't get a call from someone saying they saw my bike and found the listing on the Bike Index. vertaald uit het Engels

Great work by Debra, Portland Police and Bryan at the Bike Index to contact me and my very new Kona bike is in great shape considering I missed it for 3 weeks.

First saw the bike listed on OfferUp.com over Memorial Day weekend. Tried to connect with seller but bike sold to the guy that returned it to me. One week later, the guy who ended up returning it to me listed it on OfferUp to cover his medical expenses for his broken collar bone. I was notified by several members of the Bike Index, and someone in a lost/stolen bicycle Facebook group knew the seller. He connected us, the seller checked craigslist and pinkbike.com to see if the bike was stolen before he bought it (my Craigslist stolen post expired a few days prior). Seller and I met up and he returned the bike to me. vertaald uit het Engels

A kind hearted eBay user found the bike for sale online, did their homework and suspected it was a match with my listing on the Bike Index, though couldn't confirm the serial number as it wan't in the eBay listing. They alerted me and provided the listing # so I could follow up with the seller. The bike was being sold with a $200 shipping fee out of Baltimore, MD (where I live and where it was stolen from). I messaged the seller and arranged a meeting to see the bike, and brought proof of ownership (receipt from original purchase) and the Bike Index stolen bike listing. The serial number was a match! They told me they had purchased the bike on Craigslist 2 years prior (shortly after it was stolen), for $200, and they were sad but understanding that their purchase of the stolen bike was not a legal transfer of ownership... they gave it back to me and we exchanged info, in the event they're able to track down the person who sold it to them, who we suspect is or is connected to the thief. Aside from a few scratches and a tear in the seat, the bike is still in great condition. After 2 years apart, it feels so good to be reunited!!! vertaald uit het Engels

It was first sold on offer up and then resold on eBay. The buyer on eBay googled the serial number and saw it on here as stolen, reached out to me, filed a claim with PayPal, got their money back and returned my bike via shipping. If it wasn't for being posted on Bike Index I wouldn't have gotten 1 lead much less 2. So grateful! vertaald uit het Engels
