If the mail people hadn't have messed with it then it would have been fine. I have no idea what exactly they did to tear it because I tried cutting my scale bracers open and they put up a huge fight so unless they took a knife to it I don't see how it ripped and no one will confess what happened. (Scale bracers didn't fit so I tried to see if I could make them bigger but couldn't) the bracers were a surprise gift. I'm just glad my fins weren't thin and fragile or they would have come off.
    I'm so sorry that happened to you At least 2 mers I know of had their tails destroyed by the post office. When the USPS employees cut open the box (for whatever reason) they completely cut down the body of the tails, cutting them open and making them useless. I never heard if the tails were insured or what happened with that.. just goes to show ALWAYS insure tails when you ship them! Always, always, always! I hope everything gets sorted.

    Your tail is beautiful, and you are so lovely! ^_^ Subscribed to your YT- can't wait to see a swim video

    SeaVixen, how gorgeous! You will be so beautiful wearing it. I'm so happy for you!!

    Regarding USPS, I have always thought that if they need to open a package they should put a paper inside stating "The USPS needed to open this because...", and it should be signed by a manager. If it is illegal for anyone to open your mail, why do they do it without reason and without owning their screw-ups? I hope the claim goes well and you and/or Mernation get compensated for it.

    OMG I'm so glad That didn't happen to me. I would have been devastated! I'm sure if it did MerNation would have taken it back and repaired it. It just wasn't worth sending it back and paying $180 in shipping to and from just to have a few small tears in the dorsal repaired. They just went ahead and sent me silicone free of charge to repair it and sent me instructions on what to do. I haven't gotten around to it yet since I'm prepping materials for my student teaching at the moment because I start Tuesday! (I'm painting my teacher prize box at the moment very time consuming!) I want to be prepared for that since I could get a job offer out of it as well and I have plenty of time to fix the dorsal since the water won't be warm until may or june. I still love my tail so very much and it's absolutely perfect! They painted it just the way I wanted and everything. Despite the issue I was still super happy and excited!

    Thank you so much! I wish the person responsible would own up to this. I would feel guilty if I broke something that belongs to someone else. If I did that I would have enclosed money from my pocket for the damages and a note apologizing. That's just me

    You have a beautiful tail that goes with your top and your bed spread (and room in general; I couldn't get that unless my house was on fire...lol)! Also, may I state that your screen name captures the imagination!
