An apparatus comprising: a frame; an interior chamber formed in the frame adapted to receive an item of merchandise; a first security feature for preventing removal of the item of merchandise from the frame; a second security feature comprising a solid item-engaging member in the interior chamber for damaging the item of merchandise upon defeat of the first security feature; a lid mounted on the frame and movable between open and closed positions; a lock slide of the first security feature which is slidable between an unlocked position and a locked position to selectively lock the lid to the frame in the closed position to prevent removal of the item of merchandise from the frame; an opening formed through the lid; a finger tab which is an integral part of the lock slide and moves therewith, and which is manually engageable via the opening when the lid is in the closed position; and a locking member movable between a first position which allows the lock slide with its finger tab to slide between the unlocked and locked positions and a second position which secures the lock slide with its finger tab in the locked position; a first lock tab rigidly mounted on the frame; a second lock tab movably mounted on the frame adjacent and aligned with the first lock tab; a third lock tab on the lock slide; and wherein the third lock tab engages the first lock tab in the locked position to lock the lid to the frame in the closed position and is disengaged from the first lock tab in the unlocked position to allow the lid to move from the closed position to the open position; and upon fracture of the first lock tab, the third lock tab engages the second lock tab to prevent the lid from moving to the open position.
