Ain't Nobody Here Posted December 25, 2009 Share Posted December 25, 2009 I bet you can't guess what this package contained. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . A pair of earphones (yes, walkman/ipod sized ones ). Says on the box "we love music and the environment too". The packaging is "eco friendly" .

Christian Posted December 25, 2009 Share Posted December 25, 2009 That is shocking! At least most of it can go in the recycle bin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Looney Posted December 25, 2009 Share Posted December 25, 2009 That's a lot of packaging I'm amazed how much packaging is used on stuff. The amount of plastic ties and weird plastic doodahs I've had to take off things today in an attempt to help Bogwoppit unwrap his presents is incredible. I guess the manufacturers will say it is to protect the item... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted December 25, 2009 Share Posted December 25, 2009 I thought you'd got another Eglu for Christmas for a mo ANH. There is certainly more than enough packaging for one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
majorbloodnock Posted December 25, 2009 Share Posted December 25, 2009 In this case, I'd doubt all the packaging was to protect the item. In fact, it's probably the same reasoning as is behind my company's when shipping very small items - package it appropriately for the size of item and you make it very easy to steal or be mislaid, whilst making the package bulkier eases the problem.
