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.

White Mountain makes nice puzzles. I would be willing to overlook a missing piece.

Please spare me the free puzzle with a piece missing. Do you want a free book with a page missing?

Nobody wants a puzzle missing pieces. Just recycle in the paper.


+1 that would be so very annoying

Some of these responses are so out there. Neither the nursing homes (Wtf?) nor the local girls and boys club want 1000 piece puzzles with missing pieces. Recycle for paper is the best suggestion. There are companies that will make a missing piece but it's not cheap, quick or easy.

Just tape a note on top if they're missing pieces.

If you’re in moco, the used book stores run by the library will take them.
