The two numbers I listed were not meant to be all inclusive.  Those just happen
to be the first two set numbers that popped into my head while writing the
post.  Yes, there have now been several sets packaged with the heavier layered
paperboard, but I suggest that ALL sets be packaged this way.

Then sets like 3052 and 3053 appeared on the shelves with a much stronger
paperboard that was 100 sealed, not just held closed by two little • adhesive
stickers on the ends.  Well, I was happy with this and figured that all
retailers would be, too.  Unfortunately, this packaging does not seem to • be a
standard for TLC.

Are you sure only those two sets were available with strong paperboard in
the US? I have boxes with strong paperboard for all the following sets:
3052, 3551, 3554, 4162, 4930, 5919, 6083, 6454, 6477, 6907, 7130, 7140,
8001, 8238, 8520, just to name a few I know for sure. I bought all of them
in Germany though, but I don't see any reason why TLC should use a different
system here. Also, 7171 included three boxes which were all made of strong
paperboard. I think this new method is a standard for medium sets only, I
haven't seen any small and no large sets with this strong paperboard yet,
but I am already used to it.

Bye, Christian.
