Not for puzzles with missing pieces.

It is if you’re a serious hobbyist. There’s nothing more infuriating than coming to the end of a big puzzle and finding a gap. I don’t know if others care as much.

“Serious hobbyist”??? My 12 year old loves puzzles and if she knew it was missing ONE piece would still happily do the puzzle.

good for your 12 year old. Not me or many others agree though. Where can op send that puzzle to your kid?

Your 12-year old is not doing an 18,000 piece puzzle so stop yapping and sit down.

Post on Facebook Buy Nothing or local "Free!" groups, note the ones with a missing piece. If there are no takers, then recycle.

It is amazing what people will take for free.

Yes, you can post on Nextdoor, or buy nothing. FWIW I do puzzles occasionally and I don't care if a piece is missing. The thing to do is to put a sticker on the front where the missing piece is.
