It’s an improvement but why not just ship in at least soft protectors. They should really just charge for shipping and ship in armors. Or give people the option to pay extra for it to be shipped in an armor. This is not complicated or difficult stuff

I really like the new foam insert and the boxes seem to be a bit sturdier. My Jurassic Park one came perfect, much better than previous shipments.

I like how it adds a little more protection considering how damaged theyve came in the past

It does add a little bit of protection, but the damage i've seen is the employee rushing or not carefully inserting the pop and foam in to the cardboard. Still a step in the right direction. hopefully when they offer protectors, the employess don't rush to put them in creating damage as well.

I've been lucky so far, but agree I like the foam insert, boxes seem the same.

That is a really good point. I hadn't heard, but are they going to offer the option to add protectors in the future?

Yeah it was one of the announcements they did at the beginning of the year. No word about it since then, but I assume they'll roll in the cost of the extra shipping in to it. But hey, if they all come without damage, I think thats a win.

Agreed, I wouldn't mind paying extra for it to be placed in a protector. So if they gave us the option, it definitely would be worth it.

I wonder if this will come with some assurance of quality. Tbf the damage I've seen as of recent has been from the actual action of packing not the actual shippiny

I appreciate them actually making them a little better, but so many horror stories have turned myself and a lot of others off already. It wasnt their fault making this happen too late, but it could've happened sooner

Agreed, a lot of collections in my circle quit the nft part and waiting to buy from sellers once in hand. The race to the bottom when in hand and being able to assess the boxes made extra little cost worth it to them.

They have been better with replacements, but if they took a little better care/time packing these they wouldn't have the issue in the first place. Most of the imperfections I've seen recently is from human error getting these packed up.

Hopefully the option to add a protector comes out soon but hopefully arent damaged before being put in there

I forgot that was something they pitched
I can’t imagine the logistics being too hard

Just gotta have large amounts of protectors in stock for them and i know workers have deadlines to meet so hopefully theres some room for them to be careful with them

They’ve been getting significantly better with the timeline of shipping so that’s always good as well. I guess they do sound harder to implement

This would be great. I don't think the new sorters are better. Every single NFT drop prior to when they switched arrived to me minty fresh! Since the new sorters, my pops have had creases galore!

So far these have been loads better than previous deliveries, and we're getting rid of those square rubs in the corners lol.

New and old packaging was good to me. I didn’t have problem with either one.

There was rally never an issue with old package. It was really a handling issue before being loaded into boxes. When the exterior box is untouched but the pop box is banged up it just tells you it is a people handling issue.

Yea i feel it, the shipping boxes and the inserts would arrive unharmed but the pops would be damaged. Ive noticed less damaged upon delivery so hopefully brighter days coming foward

Same here, if anything was noticeabe, it would be like a little ding here and there . But nothing thats significant noticeable at a quick glance
