Been waiting a long time for these chips, to be completely disgusted with customs/USPS (not surprised really)
This package was held in customs for 3 weeks and moved between facilities with no other information for an additional 2 to 3 weeks. Upon arrival the box didnt feel right, and as soon as I picked up I knew it was bad news. I could hear all the loose chips inside. Upon inspection of the package before opening I was able to spot a clear slice where they had cut open the package and then taped over with 1 piece of white tape on each side. Upon opening the box, I found my chips loose in the bottom with the SFRB that they had previously been packaged in (which was also labeled and addressed per Dave's recommendations) thrown on top completely ripped into pieces. Absolutely disgusting. I hate customs! The chips suffered some flea bites but all 100 made it here (thankfully)
It really really bothers me they can just do whatever they want to other peoples belongings. I feel very strongly that the seller was not at fault here given all the identifiers that proper packaging was attempted at initial shipping. And mostly because I dont believe the seller would throw ($300 worth of) loose chips in a box with slices in it and slap a piece tape on it.
