    Hi all,

    Finally received a shipment from Bullion Bourse today for some kooks and a 2 oz Dragon I ordered over a month ago. Kooks are fine, but the Dragon arrived with a badly cracked/shattered capsule (as in, it's fragile enough now that I'm scared it will completely disintegrate on me if I pick it up the wrong way).

    Being new to the stacking game, I am not sure what the appropriate course of action is here. Do I:

    - Email BB and ask them to send me another capsule to fit a 2 oz Lunar?
    - Attempt to locate a 2 oz Lunar capsule from Ebay?
    - Buy capsule from Airtites or similar company (though, the 2 oz Lunars seem to be an unusual coin size so I'm really not sure which one to get - I want a snug fit like the original Perth Mint capsule)

    Ideas anyone? Beautiful coin but ruined by a very badly damaged capsule.

    call them - i got the same deal from BB on 1 kilo coin.
    They said that they can either send new capsule or send them back the coin and they'll replace it with new one.
    i took Option1.
