I think we all have made a shipping mistake at one point. Mine was when I auctioned off a rare book collection. I mailed a thick hardback, mint book in a bubble-mailer. Yes, it was stupid. After receiving the book with four bend corners, the buyer emailed back: "Don't they have boxes in Georgia?"

I used to sell rare lp's (records to you younguns) I always sent VERY DETAILED instructions how to open the package, it wasn't rocket science but it worked everyone got their record opened ok with no damage, my boss says a happy client pays with happy dollars
