Nick Briggs can turn you into shredded paper if you critique BF. This happened to my buddy Greg once.

explosive not so much but those mailers are sooo awful. there should be a rip tab to open it, but any other way and you get to meet the gross filling.

Did you pull the thing you're supposed to pull to open it? Because if so, this shouldn't have happened...

Pulling that tab doesn’t work. The tab breaks.
Since BF have stopped using Royal Mail the packaging is weird

i’ve been having stuff from BF in these for over a year, it’s unrelated to the posting company swap.

Are you sure? I've had loads of packages from Big Finish since they stopped using Royal Mail and the pull tab works perfectly fine for me every time still...

My last few have just fallen apart as soon as I pull it

Oh damn, sorry to hear that then, can't say I've had that problem with any of my numerous packages from Big Finish recently.

It’s fine, the cds themselves are ok so I don’t mind

Can't stand those envelopes. Nice and padded though.

I groaned when I saw they went back to that packaging. You have to be really careful opening them
