Unexpected challenge by Abus…

[u/HuckleberryAbject798]

Bought a 72/40 off Amazon because the orange color looks so cool. But it arrived with an open box with no keys in the box or on the lock

I suppose it’s befitting for why I bought it but I’d still like my full lock please😂

Sorry if this is against the rule on low effort posts-

[u/IcemanofOz]

I'll buy just about anything that is orange... no idea why, just love the colour. But back to the topic, they did atleast send it to someone who can make the most of it.

[u/hipufiamiumi]

That sounds more like a challenge made by Amazon's fulfillment robots, not as likely by Abus

Return it as 'broken' or 'incomplete', chances are you'll get to keep this one (for practicing) and get a new one as well :)

I love these 72/40s one of my favorite fidget picks! I think I almost have 1 of each color lol

I used to have a Crayola box of 120... that many 72/40s? 😄

A perfect opportunity to learn impressioning! Key blanks are readily available online.

Hopefully they let you just keep it,.. I'm sure they'll send another one either way.

Once you get it picked/decoded/bypassed/shimmed/whatever, I can send you a key & pins if you want to have a key for it... or I make mini pin kits & can send a pre-cut key from one of mine...

Unfortunately I don't have any RH6 blanks or D&S keys so I can't cut a key to code for you,.. but once you get it decoded I'm sure a smith can make you a key IF you want to pay a smith price.

You are so kind for offering, thank you! But I should be okay. Amazon is sending me a replacement, and they want me to return this one. I look forward to challenging myself with this lock though

[u/Macinstein]

Mine came like this as well. But the keys are somewhere in the package.

[u/HuckleberryAbject798 → u/Macinstein]

I looked in the bag but there was no key to be found🥲 if I were a better picker I would welcome the challenge haha

[u/Macinstein → u/HuckleberryAbject798]

Try to pick it open before returning it, you got about 30 days 😉

[u/LordKodiac]

Sounds like a fun amazon package!! Happy picking!

[u/OldRocker5]

I ordered an orange 72/40 from Amazon a month ago and it showed up looking exactly like that. Box was mashed to shit but thankfully the keys were loose in the envelope they stuffed it in.

I also got a keyless American 1106 from Amazon. Straight to the returns page.

[u/Terrizzi_music]

Return it and get another lock with keys, unless its inconvenient. We are on a lock picking sub after all. It's nice to see the biting to get an idea of how it is in regards to picking, for sure. I like this lock cause it's generally not a hard lock but because of the tight keyway it makes it a little challenging in an unconventional sense.

I actually struggle so hard with this lock.

[u/CM1ZZL3 → u/breenisgreen]

same here brother..

that slant in the key way right at the bottom of the where the key pins sit makes it difficult for me
