Speaking of books, is there an online bookseller that actually uses things like packaging? Amazon hardly uses dick for packaging, and it's usually just those air baggies, which the books smash and then it's like nothing. I hardly ever get undamaged books from Amazon. One time I ordered 15 hardcover books from B&N and they threw them all into a box with nothing. I was not happy. It was an expensive order, and I would have thought they would be careful with it. Guess not.

Yeah, I've never had a problem with books from Amazon. What they've done for my orders is put the books on a cardboard slab, and then tightly shrinkwrap around the slab so that the books can't even budge. Then they put the books in a box and put air baggies on top of that.

Seems to work quite well.

I agree their packing isn't the best at times. Just ordered two more books a couple days ago, we'll see how well packed they are!
