NotTheStig said:Never had any issues in both sending or receiving this way before, but sent some loose Super Thins out to Tadpole here in an envelope, cellotaped down, and Tadpole told me the envelope was delivered torn open down the side and the blades removed!
I doubt it was an accident. What makes it okay to tear open an envelope rather than a cardboard parcel? Just because its easier to steal from? I could have secured them better I guess but didn't think I would need to.
In the absence of a better explanation the phrase "theiving b*st*rd" springs to mind.
So guys, I would avoid sending them out loose in an envelope if I were you.

Am planning to stop by the sorting office in the morning. Will also leave a note for postie on Monday morning in case it did just split and s/he finds them in the bottom of their bag.
If I see a very clean shaven postman round my way an eyebrow may well be raised.

NotTheStig said:Others have sent blades to me like this. I saw no reason why not to. I've never cut myself picking up blades in their wrappers - that's what they're designed for - and then there's the envelope for even more protection.
I'm not up on the specifics of automatic mail sorting machines but this thread was just a little warning and a cathartic rant.
And being Scottish you'd be too tight fisted to send any out for free in the first place!
