Is it just me?!?!?
I recently bought some phonographs and records. There was a box of 30 black wax records. When I was going through them, one slipped out of the cylinder box bottom when I lifted it out. It of course fell to the floor and broke. It was in the best condition of all of them before I broke it. It was the only record of any interest or value. The rest were either moldy or nothing special to listen to.

I had the same thing happen to me with a batch of clean Busy Bee cylinders --- the bottom detached from one box, and crash went the cylinder

Truly sorry for your loss, but them's the breaks

Murphy’s Law again! You got my condolences, this looks like one of those things I think exclusively happens to me!
I’ve almost broken records when I’ve pick them up and was unpleasantly surprised that the bottoms of the boxes were missing, but I was able to catch them in time!
