[spudski]

Reminds me of when I bought some mint footy programmes from the 50's.

Bloke put a hole punch to them and sent them in a ring binder to keep them from getting creased...wtf!!!!!

Some real 'Special' people out there lol

Or the time someone sent me a lovely OHW team only for them to selloptape the figures to the inner box so they didn't move around.
I live safe in he knowledge that these people will be weeded out by a process of natural selection.

I had that with a rugby set a few years, totally ruined.

One thing I hate is when folk put items in a thin padded envelope and expect them to survive the mail system

also idiots that tape box lids shut before putting them in the loft for 40 years...how many collectables across the board have been ruined like this?

do they think flees are that strong to lift a lid off ffs?
