Okay so I was coming back home today after a beach gathering and as I was reaching my home, I spotted a bunch of old stuff just lying around beside a dumpster at the void deck near the lift. LO AND BEHOLD, I spotted a WWF Hasbro Yellow King of the Ring faced upside down and just below it was its original box!!! I looked a round to see if it was really someone disposing it away and it was amidst a pile of junk. I quickly rushed and salvaged the ring and brought it home. My mum screamed at me for bringing 'junk' home and kept shouting at me that the house was getting full from my toys but I was not paying attention to her. I was in my own own world overjoyed at being able to give this piece a new home!!! The condition is pretty okay and I was so happy to find this gem. Here are some pics:     Cheers!!!!!!!! |

Incredible... Its mine, it fell out of my car as i drove past that exact dumpster.
Please can you send it back to me?? Perfect timing as i have just posted a police lost/stolen property report.
Great to know that i can inform them that you have found it for me and will be sending it back to me in the next 2-3 days.

If this is true it is awesome luck that i dont have.... This story is only behind the KOTR ring that was opened but new at a garage sale last summer. Still mad I didnt get it when he put it on the Bay for $200.

hmm Well I was soo happy that I took off with the ring and forgot to take a photo of my spotting but the only proof I have is that I already had one of these that I picked up a couple of years ago which was in decent shape except for the center being terribly warped.. I did not quite need another piece but I'll take it  here's a pic of my other ring that I got before:   Cheers!!! |

Someone is meticulous enough to keep a ring and box (in very good condition) for 20+ years, only to "leave it at a dumpster?"
Right....
