ANACS $5 Lib arrived unsnapped

Bought this on ebay, was mailed in a padded 0000 envelope, USPS insured. Seller is gone for the weekend, so I thought I would see what the post office said.

They said there wasn't any damage, just snap it back together.

    I, personally, wouldn't blame the sender....especially if it appears that ANACS didn't seal it correctly.......seems to be some of that going around lately....

    I've been told I tolerate fools poorly...that may explain things if I have a problem with you. Current ebay items - Nothing at the moment

    That's why you should stick with PCGS. They would never send out a slab that wasn't properly sealed.image

    Incorrect, there was a post recently of a PCGS slab in two pieces. I believe it was Saintguru who posted it.

    I'm sure someone will recall the thread.

    I believe that the sarcasm was intentional. Deeply ironic.

    In all likelihood it was in one piece when the seller sent it out. It probably got manhandled in the mail, and split apart.

    Get with ANACS and see if they'll reholder it at the same grade for free. They should.

    Positive FB for the seller.

    the anacs slab looks like it would bust open if you dropped it...
    unlike their old ones which could take a two story drop and just
    crack/chip.. not bust wide open.

    From looking at the photo, that seems like reasonable lay person response.

    I knew all this. I guess you either didn't see my winky face or don't understand what it means. I was kidding all the Koolaid drinkers.

    Those ANACS slabs fall apart like that if you mearly look at them sternly.

    That's why that holder has become obsolete.

    Yes, I'm aware of the winky face, an oversite on my part. Everything is cool Perry. image
