hacksolo Posted November 26, 2006 Share Posted November 26, 2006 I just received a HP digital camera I ordered from buy.com the other day. They shipped it in an ENVELOPE! ...and when I opened the envelope and took out the sealed HP box, the camera is rolling around loose inside it! Who the hell ships electronics in an ENVELOPE! Just thought I'd let you guys know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davenet Posted November 26, 2006 Share Posted November 26, 2006 Was it one of those corrugated envelopes that is glued around the perimeter? I get my books in those envelopes when I order them from buy.com. Your description gives me the mental image that it came in a paper envelope. I sort of don't think that's the case, but maybe I'm wrong. David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daz Posted November 26, 2006 Share Posted November 26, 2006 I've never had trouble, everything has always been packaged very well. Amazon is a different story..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kara1204 Posted November 26, 2006 Share Posted November 26, 2006 Ahhh yes....my first and only purchase from Amazon. The Cher Barbie in 2003, I think it was. Arrived SMASHED!!! They replaced it, but what a hassle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not something I would have ever dreamed anyone would ship electronics in. The camera shifted freely inside the envelope and also freely inside the box it came in! Disappointment all around!

daz Posted November 26, 2006 Share Posted November 26, 2006 Was it new? They usually are packed very well from the factory in the original box Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hacksolo Posted November 26, 2006 Author Share Posted November 26, 2006 Yep... it was new. Dunno why they packed it like they did. The HP box it came in is thin and sealed, but it feels like it has zero 'guts' inside the hold the camera in place. I don't want to open it for fear they won't take it back!
