I need the help of someone more knowledgeable than I about this subject. I bought a used logic board for a 3400 that the owner said was working. When I opened the package, i was surprised to find it in a regular zip-lock bag instead of a anti-static bag, and it worried me a little because I thought boards and chips should always be stored and shipped in an anti-static bag. Well, sure enough, after installing it, it didn't work. I know it could have been something I did, but I've done this logic board swap a few times with no problems. In fact when I put another logic board back in that machine everything worked fine again. So my question is, how important is the anti-static bag, and what are the risks of sending a board halfway across the country in a zip-lock bag and bubble wrap?
