I didn't receive one of the CD's myself, as I'm not that familiar with the stuff they're trying to sort, but having received other stuff from the group, I'd think that the CD's were likely mailed in the cardboard disk/CD mailers that are available now. The reports have been floating into that particular list for the last few days. One CD mangled I can see as accidental, but not a whole batch.

Proper packaging is the key. Thanks to first 3 power mac 601 cpu on logicboards crunched caused by improper shipping packaging. The 4th one I hope won't come in this way according to 4th seller packed and boxed in another box with packing stuff. All first 3 were from one sellers each. Already told them and couple is willing to refund or replace. The first seller I don't mind bec it was asis condition but I knew it wasn't the problem itself but poor packaging ruined that initial stuff I bought. This begat the next 2. I'm amazed that cd got ruined and shedding it's shiny tressels. I couldn't get CDs to break by hammering hard edge-on onto table. Only that I can do it is fold and close them like a duck's mouth clamping on an insect. PING!...and hear twirkles short later. they shattered and bits and jagged bits let fly all over. Even some bits flew 5 feet away. Wasn't those ruined cds shipped in it's soft sleeves? My parents while back ordered big pile of audio cds via a well-known mail-order place and they came intact in a simple small box and all of them were in their jewel boxes. About 6 orders total I think around 8 titles appox each order. Cheers, Wizard
