You're good!

I'll give an example of what I'm talking about. I received an Empire Strikes Back folded 1sh yesterday in the mail. It came in a flat corrugated package. Everything was fine until the package wouldn't budge open even after I carefully slit the tape on the edges. The package had been industrial stapled together on three sides. I was worried that I would bend the poster inside just trying to get the package to come loose from the staples. I semi found a way to hold one side to the table and pull the the top half straight up. Luckily the poster came out unscathed.

The DEA can't find the drugs hidden inside?

I got one the other day that was done up with tape that the seller had put numbered pull tabs on.  You pulled them in the order they were numbered and it came right open.....brilliant!
