Amazon is still probably slapping shipping labels directly onto the packaging. They don't care if the packaging is inadequate for mailing.

>80% of the G1 reissue Predaking sets they sold had to be returned because they were damaged in transit

Even if it was adequate for mailing, it still ruins the packaging to plaster a shipping label on it, if you're a MIB collector, never buy from Amazon

>inb4 "people who collect MIB are idiots

Sorry but your opinion doesn't much matter, retard.

Honestly, MIB collecting or not, in my eyes its very unprofessional for a huge company like Amazon to do that. Imagine if you were buying something like that as a gift, and you've got to hand a present over to someone, and you give them a ragged, ratty looking piece of shit box.

When you buy something new, you sort of expect it to arrive to you in reasonably undamaged condition, even if it is just the box.

My biggest issue with Amazon is that they almost always seem to use too little--if any at all--packing materials. Having your item rattle around in a box that's 3x too big often causes an item to arrive damaged too.

I once ordered a figure off Amazon, and was baffled when the box arrived and the box size was only about 2/3 the size of the actual item's packaging. Turns out, they just crushed the fuck out of the item's package so they could fit it into a box that was far too small.

Not toy related, but I've had numerous hardcover artbooks, and comics, and other books arrived banged up, and with fucked up corners because they were improperly packaged too.

You can "review" how your order was packed. I do it often enough when things come damaged

Yeah, it's because they usually ship them out in these cardboard "folders", and those get banged up pretty fuckin' easily. The upside of Amazon and books is usually they've got damn good prices, downside is it's a 50/50 shot if any of them arrive without getting banged up because they skimp on packaging fucking everything. Still, I'll accept some dented packaging as long as the items within are intact, since I don't give a shit about the packaging.

Yeah, i hate ordering trades and books from Amazon, but i don't think its the packaging that bangs the fun out of them, since mine usually come perfectly packaged.
So it's some asshole or robot that's banging the shit out of it when he's taking it to his shipping box.
I've had a cover nearly ripped in half and there's no way that would have happened in transit. It had to be someone just grabbing it from the cover to stick it in.

I usually just use Barnes and Noble for all my online book/trade shopping, since they always package it well AND there are never dings or rips.

Other than that, i have no complains with Amazon. Never had a toy or electronic box broken.

Nope.

But I did see that set on clearance at a TRU a couple months ago, except someone had returned it with the new cartoon version of April inside.

I didn't have it happen with a toy, but a semi-rare book I needed for some writing went missing between ordering and delivery. But Amazon does their own delivery here now (Orlando) for some items. I got the other item from the same order, and Amazon claimed it was delivered, but my mail room says they never got it. So it just up and disappeared. So I got a refund.

Outside of the actual tech employees they treat their employees like garbage. Warehouse workers are temps worked to the fuckin bone and the turnover rate is high as fuck.

So it's just a microcosm of the tech industry as a whole: techies are kings, everyone else are peasants to be used.

kek, I remember one time I was biking home and I saw an Amazon truck with an open door take a hard turn, dump their entire load on to the road and keep driving without even noticing.

Pic related.

Would have had a field day stealing packages but unfortunately there was a cop giving someone a ticket literally 10 feet away when it happened.

It took me like three weeks to get a Bandai Tamashii shipped from Amazon's warehouse to my address. I tried to cancel it after a while but they said the processing was too far along for that. Eventually it shipped out four days later before arriving. The packaging was inadequate like usual but it miraculously arrived unharmed.

I swear Amazon is getting worse over the years, doesn't help that they're jacking up the cost of Prime while decreasing the benefits and increasing the minimum value for free shipping.

People realize they can request it be shipped in an Amazon box right? I ordered a Pelican case and they're wrapped in carboard that says PELICAN so I requested a box and got one. Not that the case needed it.

I ordered a fabric lightbox.
That shit was in a box.
The box was wrapped a couple of times in a whole buncha that brown packaging paper cushion.
Then put in another bigger box.
What?
I guess Amazon wasn't sure how fragile it was and needed it to put it in one of their boxes, but it was way bigger than I would think it needed.

Yep, I had ordered a Sentai Ninninger Lion Ha-oh from Amazon and it's a MASSIVE mecha. They slapped a sticker right on the box and shipped it to me. The packaging was so far fucked one of the flaps was about to bust open. Immediatly returned it and had them ship me one in an actual box.

I work at one of their warehouses, and they definitely still do this. Seen Lego sets, statues, and on a couple of occasions a really nice, probably expensive full size replica of the red Power Ranger's helmet shipped this way.

If I'm going to pay for this level of care, then fuck Prime. I don't need their video service, half the audio is muffled so bad the music drowns out voices, 2/3 of their stuff isn't even on the Prime service, and I can pirate stuff for free. $11 a month so they can pack shit with no care, well fuck em, I can buy off eBay.
