Nice mugs but inspect closely when delivered

Love the design of these mugs and capacity as well. So, I bought two and then two more. Only negative is I noticed cracking inside and out on one mug after a few days of use. Seems to be the result of impact or shock on the bottom of the mug which I feel happened during shipment. I'm sure my own handling did not cause this damage. Mugs have NEVER been dropped nor handled roughly. The mugs I received were packed two to a box with only a thin wrap of styrofoam around each mug but nothing protecting the mug's top and bottom... only the cardboard material of the shipping container. As such, exposure to shock/breakage is maximized in these areas and exactly where the damage I noticed occurred. But I did not closely inspect the mugs upon unpacking. Only after use did I see any damage. So, inspect YOUR mugs thoroughly upon delivery as some mugs, like the one I received, will not survive the rigors of shipment intact.
