Thanks for the offer Doug, but it's not your fault. I bought it from Countycomm, and the plastic case was cracked and broken when I got it. I had bought a couple of their "empty small green boxes" at the same time, so I just moved the contents and didn't think anything of it. It was only $6.50 and the tinder is still good. No biggie. I just glad I tested the second one without junking it.
