I have to admit.. I don't really care that much about ruining the earth. A meteor is just going to come through and make everything right with the universe anyway.
So - when a company's packaging gets on my radar - you know it has to be excessive. You can see this stuff happens all the time. Here.
This is a simple roll of lead tape. It was the only thing that was in that box. WTF?
Does it really cost less to send a big box like this rather than a small envelope? I mean.. that's only explanation. Right? Lead tape isn't breakable.

ReplyDeleteFreaking children's toys are packaged in so much plastic and other crap that it is unbelievable!
