Went to my Tuesday order bank and picked up my two half boxes, I noticed different printing on them but didn't think anything of it.
Got home and went to open box #1 and these boxes do not use tape to seal them shut, they have a flap that folds under, so I think, well that's not good, now with these boxes anyone along the chain can just pop them open anytime.
Anyway I open the first one and sure enough, all the roll had been opened, it was obvious and even more so with the three stray yellow String wrappers setting on top surrounded by the white Brinks rolls. Box #2 was unmolested but a skunk.
Has anyone else recieved these new no-tape boxes?

Flat as in like the one on the left in the pic Tim? That is the only kind I've ever seen untill today. I have a feeling changes are happening.

I think he means flat like Garda boxes. They are 5x10 instead of the cube shape that has 2 5x5 stacks.

I have never had a box that was opened but did have a box that had about 8 rolls that were opened, box was glued shut. Once this happened i imediately switched my ordering bank and it has not happened since. I also switch the bank i order from every 2 times now. Im finding by doing this im getting better results and not pissing anyone off.

Clearly those are Egyptian half dollar boxes.

I've gotten the flat boxes with the mixed colored wrappers that have all been searched and refolded. Happens and it sucks.

Sorry to bump this up, but I guess my point was missed.
Just wanted to know if any of you have seen these new Brinks "no tape" boxes? Like the one on the right of the photos? Anyone???
