>>> bubble envelopes A lot of people I've found have this major misconception about bubble envelopes. These flimsy bags of bubble wrap are quite useless for sending any kind of bendable material. The only thing they are good for is to cushion an item if it's dropped or bumped; nothing more. They do NOT protect against bending or major crushing (ack, my poor CD box!). I have received cels, cards and other paper goods in bubble envelopes with barely a single piece of flimsy cardboard for support and some with no cardboard at all by people thinking that these envelopes are postal cure-alls. No offense to any postal worker reading this; but the mail handlers are a bunch of gorillas, who really don't care about the mail they are handling (despite those films they show on the monitors at the post office). So it's up to the sellers to protect their merchandise in anyway they can, so that us, the buyers won't complain about it later. Metaphor (the steam has disipated) |
