NTDOC NTDOC Administrator Registered: 2000-07-28 Posts: 11634 Loc: Space	Well no picture, but I ordered a replacement battery for my Sony digital camera and it was shipped in a box that could hold 2 laptops. No wonder the shipping costs so much, not to mention what that type of packaging does to landfills since not all is still recycled

They shipped us in a HD sized box, new CPU retaining springs. And expected us to send the bent ones back to them. _________________________ Today is the tomorrow you worried about yesterday.

I used to work for a company that bought about $200,000.00 AU$ and they added a table-tennis table and gear with the order. I suppose that may all stop soon. _________________________ Regards, Andy. --Just shoot me, please.--

Les Les KiX Master Registered: 2001-06-11 Posts: 12734 Loc: fortfrances.on.ca	Originally Posted By: Gargoyle Personally I love the ones from Dell... I ordered a bunch of hotswap HD carriers. Apparently you have to order the screws separately. The four tiny screws came individually packed in boxes bigger than what the carriers shipped in! Overall, the whole shipment was nearly the size of a small refrigerator. _________________________ Give a man a fish and he will be back for more. Slap him with a fish and he will go away forever.

I've received several 'dvd-box sized software bundles in boxes as big as a midi-tower puter.. that's fun when you get three boxes, with three different software-bundles... _________________________ as long as it works - why fix it?
