The person purchased a stack of 8 glass plates and 2 sherbets. I decided to ship the sherbets in a separate box because they were going a long way and it just seemed like the smart thing to do. Well, the photo and the person's message showed that somewhere along the way, the box with the plates must have sat in water. The entire bottom portion of the box was mushy and soggy.

Here's the photo: [ATTACH=full]161160[/ATTACH] Have any of you had any weird(er) things happen to your fragile packages where the contents went unharmed?[/QUOTE]
