How NOT to send your jewelry

[WinkHPD]

I received a box via Priority mail today. Partially crushed, partially opened, but fortunately no loss. Here is the video.
Please, when you ship something to us, TAPE up those boxes, especially the corners!
Just a thought, none of us want you to lose your jewelry while sending it to someone in the mail.

yikes!

I always triple tape sometimes...lol especially with those brown thread tape. Whew! the sender dodged this one barely - glad there was no loss. Thanks for posting the video Wink.

Is that parcel even insured? My post office do not allow me to even buy that box if I am going to insured it using registered mail.

It was shipped priority insured, and it is a beautiful ring.

Wink, this is just one example of why your customers love you so much! You can cut right to the heart of the matter with no fluff or muss! Thanks for being just you, and loving what you do!!!!

Good Lord! Thankfully the ring was unscathed. Thanks for the share and education.

The worst shipment I ever received was a 10 Ct. total weight diamond bracelet
sent registered mail in a regular business size white envelope. It was hand stamped
with the bracelet poking through the flimsy envelope.

A good reminder Wink...thanks!

Extra tape never hurts.

I''ll be adding a third layer of tape next time something of mine goes out...
