Beings how we are sharing bad packaging. I bought a shell globe a few years back from a very nice gentleman, he said he packed it very securely and had paid the post office extra for hand cancelling so it did not have to be run through the machines. When I went to pick it up at the Post Office and they set it on the counter it made a nice tinkling sound. We opened it up and this was the result. I felt bad for the guy who sold it to me as it had been in his family for years and came from his Dad's station. Luckily the insurance paid for everything but it was still a hassle find another one.
