This is a strange

I sold a near mint 42 Black widow a few days back. When I owned it, the grips fit perfectly. I packed the pistol in a holster and wrapped the holster in bubble wrap and packing paper and boxed it. When it arrived, the left grip had apparently somehow warped or something as the new owner stated the left grip was extremely loose. He showed me a picture of his inserting an entire spark plug gauge between the grip and the frame. I sent to him a replacement grip that fit perfectly. My thought is the box was exposed to some kind of refrigerant leak or such in the belly of the plane and damaged the grip. Any thoughts?
