How does Amazon pack these to ensure they aren't damaged in shipping?

Well, the hard drive isn't made by Amazon so the manufacturer makes a box that can hold up a beating its self. Amazon adds a sort of insurance and extra extra packing (packing peanuts or more commonly those airpacks along with double boxing).

We will pack it by using bubble cushion and other stuffs to make it very firm and safe. So you don't need to worry about it.

If something is damaged during shipping, Amazon will refund you every cent and even pay for the shipping back. They are one of my favorite companies for their return service alone.

Hello Homer, I just checked with UPS, which Amazon's preferred shipping method. There are a few locations in your area so it shouldn't be a problem. Thanks for your inquiry! - P Coast Partner Customer Service

Hang on to the box & packaging for repacking at time of disassembly. Should be no problem to transport.

I don't think so. They came in the manufacturers boxes. Many of the other sellers send them in a zip lock bag.

When I've received them in the past, they have been all together in one plastic bag (not individually wrapped but not just thrown in the box without protection). Hope this helps.

I have never bought them before but the ones I got a few days ago are really thin. I wouldn't ship anything in them without two bags just cause the mail is so rough on things-I'm afraid it would tear.

Thank you for your question. I am not entirely clear on the nature of the question; however, if you are asking about the possibility of the item arriving in anything less than mint condition then please be advised that we cannot force the postal service to handle every package properly -- damage does occur on occasion. Still, we have a success rate of over 99% for items arriving as described. We ship the item in a sturdy cardboard shipping tube that should protect it sufficiently while the package is in transit. In cases where an item arrives damaged, we generally ask the buyer to provide us with a digital picture of the item and the shipping container so that we can confirm the damage. Once this has been taken care of, we generally send a free replacement if we have ne in stock or issue a full refund for the order if we do not. Please let me know if I can assist you with anything else. Thanks Matt Bananaroad

They were shipped in a brown shipping carton...well protected. If you want it gift wrapped, I guess you have to find another way.

In happens with Amazon. Basically, if you receive a damaged package or a completely improperly packaged breakable, fragile item, then take a photo of the problem, do not open any received items and request an exchange. Make their warehouse management do their jobs next time (like training the trainable or firing the non-trainable warehouse staff).

I ordered mine some time ago. They were not individually wrapped. I transferred them all to a ziplock bag and take them out as needed.

These have been fulfilled by Amazon for over a year. Unfortunately, damages do still occur, as it is difficult to ship a large item like this. Should it arrive damaged, Amazon is very good about assisting with returns and replacements.

I found my towel racks/bars to be well packaged with nothing broken. I think that in your case you should send the item(s) back for an exchange or a refund. Note that Amazon will followup on some shipped items asking if the packaging was okay. Sometimes it isn't.

I try to ship in as little packaging as possible. Amazon may put it into a padded bubble mailer or a small box when its shipped to you. I do highly recommend washing them! Mail trucks can look pretty scary! :)

Of course. It would be very unprofessional to ship such an expensive collectible without proper "brown shipping packaging". I believe its standard procedure. They will be shipped correctly and as always if there's any questions about the product in any way you can contact the seller directly.

Mine were packaged very well and had no damaged bags. The ones I ordered were from Amazon though.

amazon is made up of many sellers, and some use ice packs and some do not. You will have to contact each seller to see how they ship this item.
