Boxes part 1

7 08 2008

Hi, this post has been planned for a while now, but I kept putting it off, so I’m doing it now.

This started when I purchased a webcam from amazon.co.uk. This was a small device, so I was expecting the packaging to be relatively small as well, however that is not what I ended up with.

This is the box which the actual webcam was housed in, packaged by Logitech so not suitable to be delivered in, of course.

Everything in order so far.

This however, is the box which amazon saw fit to deliver it in.

Granted, the size difference doesn’t look that great because of the distance of the camera. So I took a picture comparing the two boxes properly.

This was the image I saw when I opened the box, although the smaller box was properly secured using the clear plastic shown in the image, I still think this is   wrong. Do amazon not have any slightly smaller boxes to use when shipping small objects? If only to save resources in today’s environment of eco awareness?

The reason I have named this post “part 1″ is because originally I had planned on e-mailing amazon with an enquiry about this, and I still might, it really depends on if I can be bothered or not. So… to be continued… or possibly not! But hopefully it will be…

You can go now…
