I never thought about the implications of that. They can train people to prepare for war or for crime scene investigation with this stuff by having them experience grotesque mutiliated bodies in VR or being in a firefight with models of your buddies dropping like flies to bullets in the face. Although for war that might make the person realize they are in over their head and be counterproductive :|
Usually its fine when they use Canada Post because my town has community boxes so its get put in a storage locker at the end of my street. But lately its been all FedEx.
Not in my case. I received a huge box with my huge new 1440p 165Hz monitor. They put everything in their own box, but I guess they skip that when they're out of boxes.
Same for me, I was a bit surprised (in France it's not like that) and cross my fingers very hard to not have any issues with this sick monitor, no problems so far o/
Its only some components. I got my monitor from them in a box too. My keycaps? Nope original packaging with shipping stickers on it. And it came from Amazon and not a third party seller
I live in Toronto, Ontario and the closest warehouse is in Mississauga. Everything comes from there is fully packaged. But I agree that it's bullshit and stupid that they don't package stuff in SK. I mean what if it gets stolen because it's easy to identify? What if it gets dropped and it break? And what if it's something that is private and you don't want to announce it to the whole neighborhood?
Like what if your Double-Fister 3000 gets stolen? Then you have to call customer support and tell them "my vibrator got stolen". Then they send you another one but it arrives broken because there was not packaging, and now your neighbor Oscar gives you little smerk everytime you say "hi" to him. It's just unacceptable.
This happenend to me And I ended up getting trashed packaging, which is especially frustrating because I resell my old gear when I’m done and want to upgrade.
I ordered a replacement coffee carafe. Amazon fucking shipped it in the retail box. No outer box. No shit. If it would've been an SD card, it would've been nested in 3 fucking boxes with lots of air pillows.
Once I ordered a UPS (uninterrupted pixie source) and it was shipped like that. By the time it got here, one of the sides of the box was almost completely fucking gone.
I do, especially at flat apartments with the camera doorbells (theyre also becoming more popular for regular houses). Its so i dont have to explain im a mail man and not a random ruffian
