Really, Amazon??? This is how you package two books?? That‘s not very sustainable. 😡 #epicfail #somebodyfuckedup #youhadonejob
Lizpixie It‘d be hilarious if it wasn‘t so awful.🤦🏻♀️ 6y

TiredLibrarian My fiance got a similar box last week containing... 1 CD! 🙄😕🤪 6y
quietlycuriouskate Whaaat?! 😫 6y
Soubhiville Yep. I‘ve gotten similar packages. Ridiculous. 6y
Chocamanda You'd think the company that sells everything would have packaging envelopes 🙄 6y
MommyOfTwo Wow! 😮 6y
MommyOfTwo @Chocamanda the do have envelopes, not sure why this was even an option! They have smaller boxes than that too!!!!! 6y
Sophoclessweetheart OMG.... 🤭 6y
Chocamanda @MommyOfTwo This kind of packaging waste is so frustrating. That box looks giant. I wish they had a packaging preference option. 6y
Suzze When I worked at Barnes & Noble we actually got a large box with only one bookmark in it! 6y
batsy What on earth... 6y
scripturient @Lizpixie @Sarah83 @erzascarletbookgasm @TiredLibrarian @River_Voice @Soubhiville @Chocamanda @MommyOfTwo @Sorceryandswords @Suzze @batsy It‘s so frustrating. When the DHL guy arrived I wondered for a sec if maybe I had placed a larger order than I wanted to. You know how it goes with books. 😂 But don‘t worry, I‘ll reuse both the box and the air packs. I am looking forward to getting their stupid ‘rate our packaging‘ email though. 👿😈 6y
2BR02B Modcloth does the same thing. Like a 2'x2' box filled with airpacks and one scarf. Aside from practicality, you'd think it would be more cost effective for them to just ship it in a padded envelope? 6y
Skyrimir I order a small bottle of vitamins for my cat every few months and they send it in a HUGE box too. Like, the bottle fits in my hand, but the box is big enough for 50 bottles. 6y
Billypar But to play devil's advocate, how many times have you opened your book mail only to find large cracks and spider web fractures obscuring every page 😝 6y
Yanes Nooooooo they did not... 6y
BibliOphelia They do this ALL THE TIME. To be fair, I have a personal rule that I don‘t buy books from them - but when I get other things... I am trying to break my Prime habit! 6y
bookaholic1 Burst out laughing...sorry!! 6y
MiyakoBunny Holy sh*t 🤦🏻♀️📦💩💩💩 6y
Karkar They did this to me too last week! I had one small box of dog food and The new SK book and it was in this huge box with no padding or protection. 6y
zembla I read somewhere that they do a weird thing where they calculate efficiency by the truckload, so the box may be too big for your shipment, but it was probably the perfect size to fit in the truck, make the most of that load, and prevent breakage. 6y
