OK this might be strange but I wonder when you order something how is it packaged when you get it? Over the past few days I received some items, Osprey books, I ordered from Amazon. The first, 1 book, was in a bubble wrap envelope that was twice the size of the book and could have had 6 books in it. Today I received 2 different books. 1 was in a bubble wrap envelope but not as big as the other one and the second was in a box that could have held 20 books. When I order from Shapeways, not that often, it comes in a box that could hold many models.
The only ones I order from that seem to make sense are AIM, a small box, and MISCMINI, in an envelope.
I just wonder how cost would be reduced it they payed more attention in how they boxed their product.
