    Rod, try to wrap it in cardboard and tape all sides shut, then put in the envelope and tape every corner of the envelope. Basically you have to "nuke" it with 2" clear tape to stop that from happening. In Japan they actually handle with care. In USA they they kick, punch, throw, and body slam the mail.

    Sorry about your stuff guys, I'm sure Rod will take care of you though.

    Yeah USPS here doesn't give a rats ass what happens to anything. I have no doubts that rod will take care of everything. His customer service has always been top notch.

    My last order from Japan came in an envelope but it was a flat object and survived without injury.

    I ordered from India once and it was wrapped in about 2" of tape and looked like a packed parachute

    I ordered a shift knob and an e-brake button...received both in the mail the other day. My e-brake button was wrapped in kleenex, then with tape. Maybe cause it was packaged with the shift knob, somehow it remained in the package. Sucks to hear about other peoples' e-brake button orders...

    Maybe Rod could wrap and tape the objects to the inside of the envelope also in adittion to his already superb packaging efforts?
