I work in an outbound warehouse, i can tell you one thing.. marking a parcel as FRAGILE makes it a target, our couriers have told me as much, i put FRAGILE stickers on parcels all day, but if im sending something from one country to another and it is actually fragile, i make sure it is packaged like bomb proof and put no markings on it. a fedex guy told me, when the guys at the depot see a 'fragile' or 'handle with care' sticker they take less care with it an a royal mail guy actually confirmed this also.

That's just sad, and that's putting it very lightly.


Secondly, I wouldn't even be surprised if he damaged the stones himself before shipping them out. Just sayin'

I hate it for your friend ovidiucotiga.
There are lots of flippers out there that sound knowledgeable but one must not forget all the info is available on the internet, and easy to regurgitate and present as knowledge.

Is that not the definition of a JNat thread?

(Kidding!)

That and the vendors that sell J-Nats for a living, have tons of info on their websites.
