I dropped an EE bag and a Light Burlap Sack with 2 TBB's in it once in Innothule. Positive I know who picked them up, but a gm told me tough luck when I petitioned. This was a couple years ago.
That being said, I've drop transferred lots of stuff, a few times upwards of 20K, and never lost anything else.
Underwater is a good place, and do use see invis first

For the love of God, do NOT try a ground transfer of an item in EC anywhere in the zone after you've scored a bargain at the tunnel. Especially do NOT use the Nektulos zone wall near the Freeport sands where there's a flat area on a cliff on the wall, where you think no one will see you.

I've scored some amazing stuff there multiple times.

You need to find a more discreet place if you're going to drop items on the ground, even if it is out of the way a bit. Bad luck and probably not much that can be done.

I placed my Guantlets of Fiery Might on the ground, sat on the bag on the ground and logged out, immediately logged back in and they were gone, only person there was Cained who was eager to "help" me find them. Of course they were not there. After a few minutes I logged out suspecting him to be the person who may of taken them and logged another character on, went to Cained and inspected him, all his gear is bad except, you guessed it.. Gauntlets of Fiery Might he is wearing.. He claims some person ran into highhold and told his group to random and he won them.. maybe true, maybe not, but the evidence shows otherwise imo.

Anything can be done to see if those are in fact my gloves? Even if they are can anything be done?

I already know I am going to get tons of replies that I am the idiot, i deserve it yada yada.. I get it, was not a smart idea, your wisdom has been noted.
This Is Cained for people who don't know

I can't believe this guy first without getting proper evidence. decided to post this FIRST before actually realizing items can Rot on the ground OR the real thief is out there...I never look on the forums.

Everybody I've grouped with can attest to the information I am a good person.. I put in my own petition because I believe once he finds out it wasn't me he will not Apologize and he will Ignore me..So I will keep you guys up to date..because this is rude and ridiculous..I even tried to help the guy..its funny how because I tried to help is the only reason why he thinks I stole them.

How i got the gloves he mentioned Gauntlets of Fiery Might. I was killing gobs in Highhold and a Halfling Warrior with an Epic came down and had us roll, I won the roll and was given Shield of Atramentous (sic) and the Gloves...I know Puppo (Iks War) was in the group so ask him...I don't remember the name of the warrior, besides he was a Halfling Warrior...who gave me the items if he remembers let me know. I also don't remember the other members because i was drinking with my other Marine Buddies. Oh ya let me mention I am in the Marine Corps and i despise thief's..

Now let me ask you guys..Can anything be done?

PS. I usually record but unfortunately I wasn't, but i have screenshots and I will post them..Also im trying to get information of this guy so I can talk to him on the phone or something so I can show real time proof..

Probably already said but if you're going to do a ground transfer, do it in a not obvious place with no one around. GMs cannot reimburse for items picked up via ground transfer. They can if it rots on the ground though.

Is this a good time for a PSA? If you absolutely must drop a bag, there are a hundred places to go without players around to drop safely. Do you know what all those empty rooms in inn's around Norrath are for? Dropping bags son!

Never ever drop a bag in front of someone. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Also, talk about coincidence on those gloves wow.

Eh...hate to say it, but his story seems to check out.

I was in his group in HHK and a guildmate of mine, Lazy <Core>, showed up and asked people to roll and top two would get items. I was on Wynngin

[Wed Sep 12 00:16:11 2018] Lazy says, 'apologies friends'
[Wed Sep 12 00:16:13 2018] Yibini begins to cast a spell.
[Wed Sep 12 00:16:16 2018] Your mind clears.
[Wed Sep 12 00:16:18 2018] Aeris Greymalkyn begins to cast a spell.
[Wed Sep 12 00:16:19 2018] You raise an eyebrow at Lazy.
[Wed Sep 12 00:16:19 2018] Kobarn goes berserk.
[Wed Sep 12 00:16:21 2018] Lazy says, 'everyone /random 100'
[Wed Sep 12 00:16:22 2018] Your mind clears.
[Wed Sep 12 00:16:23 2018] Your surge of strength fades.
[Wed Sep 12 00:16:26 2018] **A Magic Die is rolled by Puppo.
[Wed Sep 12 00:16:26 2018] **It could have been any number from 0 to 100, but this time it turned up a 52.
[Wed Sep 12 00:16:26 2018] **A Magic Die is rolled by Wynngin.
[Wed Sep 12 00:16:26 2018] **It could have been any number from 0 to 100, but this time it turned up a 100.
[Wed Sep 12 00:16:28 2018] Your mind clears.
[Wed Sep 12 00:16:30 2018] **A Magic Die is rolled by Rhes.
[Wed Sep 12 00:16:30 2018] **It could have been any number from 0 to 100, but this time it turned up a 22.
[Wed Sep 12 00:16:31 2018] **A Magic Die is rolled by Yibini.
[Wed Sep 12 00:16:31 2018] **It could have been any number from 0 to 100, but this time it turned up a 77.
[Wed Sep 12 00:16:34 2018] Your mind clears.
[Wed Sep 12 00:16:35 2018] **A Magic Die is rolled by Cained.
[Wed Sep 12 00:16:35 2018] **It could have been any number from 0 to 100, but this time it turned up a 90.
[Wed Sep 12 00:16:37 2018] Puppo tells the group, 'brb'
[Wed Sep 12 00:16:40 2018] Your mind clears.
[Wed Sep 12 00:16:46 2018] Lazy says, 'wynn cant win. '
[Wed Sep 12 00:16:46 2018] Your mind clears.
[Wed Sep 12 00:16:52 2018] You say, 'so much hate'
[Wed Sep 12 00:16:52 2018] Your mind clears.
[Wed Sep 12 00:16:58 2018] Your mind clears.
[Wed Sep 12 00:16:59 2018] --Jadsen has looted a Left Goblin Ear.--
[Wed Sep 12 00:17:00 2018] Lazy says, 'wrong race bard'

At the time, I asked what people won and nobody responded to the question, but I got confirmation from Lazy that one of the items was the gloves in question.

Submit the petition and find out who actually snatched them but it looks like Cained is clean.

Additional proof that nothing good comes from Lazy's acts of kindness.
