I can tell you that I have certainly come across dirty,  already been
chewed, bubble gum encrusted, snot caked, putty filled, milk spattered,
larvae infested, and otherwise disgusting elements in my time.

LARVAE INFESTED!?! If this ever happened to me I'd probably abandon my LEGO
buying completely.  Snot I can handle but creepy crawly things...YECCH!

Please tell me this was just hyperbole, and you didn't actually receive
pieces with LARVAE in it!

Well, I can't say I've *bought* anything in that condition, but in my 20
years of Lego collecting, I have *thrice* found bricks with insect-egg-sacks
in them amongst my non-airtight Lego boxes. All hatched before I found them.
Made me wish I felt comfortable boiling my bricks, but instead I just washed
them. THOROUGHLY. [shiver]
