Question about zippers:

I just received my kits – all very exciting, like a kid on Christmas ‘n all that – but the zippers are proving a bit of a challenge. All five appear stuck and despite a fair amount of traction, to the point of where I’m afraid I’ll do damage, I can’t get any of them to budge.

They all look to be in good condition and have evidence of some lubrication around the edges.

Just wondering if this is a common issue? Is there any kind of initial treatment that might help?

Thanks in advance!
