Is it that much to ask for people to pack items with respect and care ? This is the second item I’ve gotten in two weeks that’s literally banging around in the box. ELECTRONIC ITEMS THAT ARE OVER 200$

Come on people ANYTHING THAT FILLS SPACE STOPS THIS the void in the box
Needs to be filled all the way or it just tumbles around. I’m seriously ticked that anyone would ship stuff this way the well I got paid who cares what it looks like when they get it attitude. Reuse some bubble wrap use that sales flyer in the mail box that you toss, recycle
Packing from another shipment heck even a plastic water bottle or two takes up volume And is FREE

Yeah I don’t get it. Grab a handful of the plastic bags you have from the store. Newspaper. Literally anything from your recycling bin is better than nothing.

While agree. although you should NOT have to ask, do request good packing and use of bubble wrap.

If one thinks its well packed - Pack it again. It does not take much to pack something nicely. I even shipped an aquarium a few years ago and it arrived intact - Not hard

Wow...I can't believe it was packaged that poorly. Does it still work?

You'd think people would take the time to package it up nicely so everything is snug and won't move around in there...ESPECIALLY expensive electronics!

Oh wow…so sorry! My husband and I own a business that we ship out products all the time, and we pack the best we possibly can. They need to pack these products as if they were shipping to themselves ha I just don’t get it
