Hey, Mark got my package today. Thanks. Only thing is I don't think you wanted me to get it out of the envelope. Mother was a bit put out for the mess I made by tearing the envelope apart. Thanks again for the cap removal tool. Have a good day. Big R

Good to hear your tool arrived safe and not missing from the package. Sorry for the workout getting it open. Too many stories of the envelop arriving missing the part. Call it "Monkey Made Packaging"... Just don't ask Randy about it, I took some short cuts...  :nea:
The glass is not half full, it was engineered with a 2X safety factor.

Yep, one almost got away...

As received in my mailbox...The end of the envelope missing and the tear mark on the inner envelope...

Oh well, all's well that ends well.

2 inches are missing from the left side of the envelope, the return address label I put on it is missing.... Lesson learned..... No more short cuts or trusting USPS to be gentile.  :mad:

That's not very encouraging.

I just sent (both halves of a broken) Givi sidebracket off in one of the large 1st Class USPS envelopes.

I was going to put it in one of those "if it fits, it ships" boxes, but the old guy at the counter talked me out of it.      :scratch_one-s_head:

In a past life I packed many things to ship UPS, some ended up as insurance pay-offs. We pressed UPS to to get some of the packages back to understand the cause of damage. Truck tires most of the time.... WTF!!!!  :ireful: :ireful: :ireful:

I know I didn't want to say anything. I should have known you would read this. Hey third times the charm. Right?
