Had this nice little number turn up on my door step today.
Unfortunately the guy sending it only put it in a plastic bag with a thin layer of bubble wrap so the top hanger is ripped.
I have had a moan at him as he is selling another on Ebay as we speak so hopefully he will use a box for the next person.

Most eBay sellers have no clue about packaging. I often ask people how they intend to send things these days. Don't people realise that the postal system is a tough place for anything to exist.

Too true, last Shadowtrak sent still had the aerial attached. I had to carefully bend the bloody thing back into shape. If I pay primo dollar I expect primo packaging. Like the bugger who sent me a boxed devilfish in a jiffy bag. As Ron Weasley would say, "Bloody Hell".

Never cool when your purchases turns up in tissue paper!

Cool item though.

Yeah, I'd understand it if it was a loose, as the only way to protect a loose figure is to wrap it on paper or bubble wrap, but a carded figure also requires some balance for the thinner, more warpable carton.

when i was new to AF my first command center showed up in only a black trash bag. this was a boxed items and the seller i guess figured it was ok to just ship in a trash bag.
