Duly note that most overzealous packaging is caused by previous customer complaints, comments and dictates about underpackaging. After complaints about underpackaging from the anal-retentive, the seller is damn well straight conditioned to fortify with two by fours and cover every bare spot with tape.

One example is the annoying tape over the top of the toploader. I know of eBay sellers who have received bad feedback because they didn't tape over the edge of a top loader, even though the cards didn't fall out. This is why they started putting tape over the edges of all the top loaders.
