What is beetling? to travel in a VW?? :-) To hunker down inside one's
carapace and plod?
Scott:
MISB does not imply complete. It implies that you take the risk, (very
very slight) that the factory inadvertantly omitted a piece, because the
box has never been opened. This is what i refer to as Missing Piece Risk
on my website.
MIB on the other hand, does imply it's complete. Seals off means it has
been examined, and thus, it had better be complete!
At least that's my opinion.
