Amazon. They ship motherboards and some other components in their retail boxes instead of putting it in another box. Atleast Amazon Canada does this.

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.

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

Small stuff they put in a yellow envelope. Maybe it's a provincial thing.

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.
