gaeronf 0 Report post Posted February 25, 2011 Got them, what an amazing bunch of flies...and toe tags. I feel like crap that my toe tags are of that quality. Sorry fellas. Also, you could have sent them back in the little plastic case they came in. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rich5665 0 Report post Posted February 26, 2011 If you use a padded envelope they should be fine. The USPS uses sorting machines with rollers. The pressure from the rollers most likely was the cause. Either that or your package wound up under a heavy object. I use the plastic case sometimes to. I've gotten one back completely smashed to. A couple of my tins have been crushed. The USPS is not exactly gentle. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
