Why Verkkokauppa.com doesn't know how to add filling in the package?! Like every item we've ordered has come in way too big box and no filling, causing the product to bounce inside it.
In the picture last purchase and always this same problem with the big box: no fillings

  1. Same, i ordered a mouse which was originally packed in a small box but they decided to put it in a huge empty box for delivery.

  2. Yep! That’s been their standard packaging method since they switched away from the folding envelope style.

  4. Probably just easier/cheaper for products like this. You can basically throw that original package into a wall and still works as intended.

    My Amazon(.de) orders come in the cheapest possible half-dissolved packaging but never got anything what broke. Including a motherboard where the original packaging was almost showing outside.

    They just dont want to fuck your packages with gazillion routing markers.

  5. I had a box of the same size used to send me two pieces of M2.5×5 screws with a special head for my TV

  7. My NS2 game I ordered was in a box similar size. You could fit at least 100 of them in there with no issues. No clue why they cannot use smaller boxes for smaller items.

  8. These are the smallest standard packages of delivery companies. They don’t care about buying smaller boxes, and don’t care to fill your “big” box with anything.

  10. Robot packaging, misconfiguration..you pick it.

    You can always return it back to them if you’re not living afar, or use it to store your belongings. I keep chemicals and macrofibre clothes for car cleaning in them.

  11. They do this, or what they did one of my motherboards; a paper bag over the motherboard box, not even the padded kind. Due to the motherboard’s package coming padded, it survived fine, but was still annoying.

    Well, Multitronic sent an HDD a long time ago, without using any padding (along with getting every single order from me wrong over the years…).

  12. I work retail and there’s a motto i live by….

    Wizards first rule: people are stupid

  13. The product already comes with a box that protects it adequately during shipping. The little bit of extra protection from the cardboard is just fine for this.

  14. Strange, and I was recently amazed on how they managed to get my large order into one of those boxes. I had to open the package in my car directly to check if they forgot to hand me 3 packages, but it was all ”tetrised” there.

  16. Have you tried contacting customer support?

    I ordered something from a different company a couple of months ago. Goods were damaged, usable but damaged, because of shit packaging. Sent a ticket to them with a complaint. Few emails and few pic, and they sent me new stuff, apologized, and forwarded emails to their logistic department.

    My wife is Finnish, I ain’t. She would have gone the polite Finnish way and not complain, but I was pissed off.

    Told them in original contact that if they are trying to save money, they shouldn’t cut corners when it comes to packaging.

    So yeah, contact their customer support and log a complaint.
