When my order arrived the cardboard Hoya box nor the petri-dish inside the Hoya Box were sealed. My question is...is that normal?

My Hoya filter box was not sealed. The filter is wonderful... my photos are clearer than they were with the cheaper filter from another manufacturer that I bought with the lens. I am happy with the Hoya filter.

I bought my Strivectin on Amazon but the supplier was Perfumania.com. It was boxed. I only buy boxed products. Although you can never be sure, I trust it will be the "real thing" if it comes in the proper box. Sellers who make the disclaimer "comes unboxed", I believe,should be avoided. Paying close Attention to product descriptions is the best way to purchase anything.

nope :) Possibly a box was damaged in shipping. I was very pleased with the 6 pack I bought and had delivered and now that I'm reminded of tapioca, I think I'll make some up.

My one came in factory laminated red/white box. Items were organized inside the box. As I remember the box was sealed.

I had something like this too. It most likely opened by someone who tried a few shots and decided to return the item after it. If there is nothing missing and new it should be ok. If you still like the camera. But it is annoying to receive something like this. Today, I got two books, one open and one sealed:(.

I would agree the packaging is not sufficient for common carrier (Postal Service, UPS, etc.) The fixture comes in its original box (as you would expect to pick it up in a store), without any additional outer packaging. I have ordered two, and the packaging on both arrived fairly torn up. That being said - both fixtures did arrive undamaged. There are styrofoam inserts between the tubes and the fixtures are very well made. I am happy with my purchase.

No, I haven't. I frequently order from Amazon and my purchases are always well-boxed. Are you certain the cameras did not come from a third-party?

The 6 box case I ordered was from their warehouse store?? I used the in my goody plates around the holidays and they were still good into February. I did not have any trouble with them being stale or broken or anything. I was very satisfied. I just wish they had that deal again because it was a much better buy then the other prices I have seen available on Amazon.

no that's not normal, but I've had that happen with other brands. it's possible the powder package wasn't sealed good. I would believe the product would be fine to use unless the outer box was damaged.

I did have not bought this model, but in general, when I have received large items like TVs, they ship in the product box, i.e. there is no extra outer box added by the shipper. This is true of an LCD TV I bought from Amazon last year, as well as other items (monitors and stereo equipment) I have received from other online shippers. The packaging should be fine for protecting the TV. However, if you had concerns because of the seal being broken or other damage to the package, that might be more reason for concern, but assuming it was not tampered-with (because of your comment about the seal), the TV should have been fine.

ha, mine was similar to yours, but they are simple items that don't have any breakable parts so it didn't bother me. They were all in good shape when i opened the box. But I would agree the packaging was a little crude.

When I ordered it it came in three boxes. But they may have shipped yours differently. I would open it and see and if it's not all there then call the company and let them know u only received one box.

I purchased this several years ago but If I recall correctly there was plenty of Styrofoam and thin foam sheets separating the individual pieces inside the box. It ships in its retail box which is made of heavy duty cardboard and I believe it was held shut by plastic straps and/or large metal staples. I will tell you the box looked really beat up upon arrival but it was also obvious it did what it should have done and kept my stand pieces undamaged and scratch free. UPS shipped this particular item to me. It is rather easy to inspect out of the box as there are only a few large pieces to assemble. Final advice.. don't get discouraged if the box looks bad when it shows up but yes it is packaged well I purchased this several years ago but If I recall correctly there was plenty of Styrofoam and thin foam sheets separating the individual pieces inside the box.

Hello, I would rate the packaging as about average. What I would consider is if you have had packages in the past that look to have been treated above average in harshness when they were shipped to your location I think you may have an issue with this packaging. I did have a slight damage to one of my boxes but not product damage but I can see where this packaging would not hold up to an above average level of treatment. Normally boxes shipped to my location have not seen any damage.
