Just got these two phals in the mail today, I noticed some leaf damage and took some pics just to make sure everything is OK.
First phal leaf marks:


Second phal leaf marks:






And a picture of the two together, the spike on the little one is ridiculously long!

The first photo looks like the led has been bent, breaking some of the vasculation. I'd bet the end will die and fall off. Stuff like that happens.

Most of the others look like mechanical damage; again, nothing to be overly concerned about.

The fourth image may show a past infection, now healed.

Yep, mostly just scratches and stuff.
Discoloring are sometimes natural part of leaf dying.

Thank you, I'm relieved to know there isn't anything alarming with these marks. Right now I'm keeping them separate from the rest (everyone is new) in case anyone at all has any pests or diseases.
