DM Tag Loop Wire eaten by TSA Machine
So coming through MSP to ANC last weekend and noticed that the TSA x-ray machine somehow tore my DM tag from my backpack. The tag itself is fine but the metal loop wire used to attach it to my backpack was quite literally torn off.
Anyone know where I can get another one? I dont want to call DL for something so petty.

Possibly go to a hardware store and buy some heavy gauged wire and crimps?

There have been several reports of defective metal fasteners in the ones sent out over the last few months.

You can have mine if you PM me your address. I just can't bring myself to use them for some reason. Clink clink clink clink....
Mine is of a different batch I think. Received 3 weeks ago.
Can't have the DM tag though. Sorry. I might have an extra KM card though....maybe.
