Not safe packing or sufficient customer service!
I'm a hardcore collector. Some blu ray releases comes in limited collectible boxsets, slipcases or similar. These are typically made of cardboard, and are fragile during shipping. They need to be packed in a proper box with several layers of bubblewrap plastic! For a collector, a boxset or slipcover isn't satisfying to own or even pay for, if it has the slightest dents, scratches pressed corners etc on it. When selling items like this, you should pack it safely.
If you think it won't be affordable within your fixed shipping fees, then give the customer at least the possibility, of choosing a more expensive, but safer shipping/packing option.
When my order arrived, it came in a thin single-layered cardboard envelope, with no padding at all, of course the boxset was completely squashed and dented beyond fixable.
In my case they listened to my complaint, after a few emails forth and back, they agreed to ship a new set free of charge, after they (what it seemed like), understood my request of shipping in a bombproof packing.
But what happened? The other boxset arrived, in the exact same one-layered envelope, again the boxset wasn't in a condition, that a collector could accept. When I again approached, I got the standard answer, that they couldn't control how the items were packed?!
Thats not a serious customer friendly business, I have ordered from wowhd the last time!!! It simply isn't worth it, to buy something, simply because it's cheap. I don't mind paying extra for good service, flexible shipping options and better understanding from the retailer, of what they're actually selling.
NOT GOOD ENOUGH! :-(
