curious why you think that a portrait sandwiched between two pieces of cardboard was going to make it intact? Terrible packaging. Lots of deadspace around the frame that needed to be filled.
I work at amazon, i get these kind of packages ALL the time. Its always a crap shoot, and as you said there was a lot of deadspace that needed to be filled, but in my experience anything thin like this will always face a high damage rate unless its in a pack of similar items t...
What you dont have faith your parcel delivery services?

The damage really did reshape its whole face
Perfectly gentle👌🏻
Cool USPS Label , that was machined about 5 times during transit
Did they fucking eat it?
The rhino tried
He did his best considering he doesn’t have opposable thumbs. Go easy on the big fella
Is this a picture of the roses?

Oh hell naw
"Fra-jeel-lay? Must be French. Yo Carl! Catch this!"
