Default Postal Service ur KILLING ME

Received this recently...another victim of USPS mishandling. The slab was "naked" inside the holder with no other level of reinforcement. Envelope was fine, so I can only assume something was dropped. Although I have no idea how it was rammed up into the top portion of the plastic.

Super Glue works great to fix that. This happened to me and I glued that puppy right up until I send it in for reholdering. Just hoping PSA doesn't say evidence of tampering...

Sounds like the problem is from the packaging rather than the post office. I have only ever received 1 broken slab and it was in a bubble mailer with no other protection. Have received numerous slabs sandwiched inside cardboard inside a bubble mailer with no problems at all.

Sorry, but this is isn't the USPS's fault, blame the person who mailed it and packed it carelessly. Every card I mail is secured with cardboard AND wrapped in bubble wrap. Just careless packing.

Agreed....all my cards are individually wrapped in bubble wrap, and then inserted into a bubble mailer.....the only card that ever arrived damaged was one that they buyer cracked on purpose so he could get a discount (he was cracking it out anyway to sell it raw)......

Has absolutely nothing to do with the post office. Every card I send and buy comes between at least two pieces of cardboard.
