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...

There is so very little packing, like, it should have at least been foamed, then double bubbled, then line the entire box with Styrofoam sheets. This is what happens when you don't want to pay for extra packing or a larger box to accommodate all the extra packaging.

It says “fragile.” Must be italian. Should have written “NO BREAK” in big red letters : )

I thought it was South American? Fragile is near Peru, I think.

Did you ship it, or is this how the portrait place sent it to you?

Is that how it was shipped, with the end tapes like that? No interior wrapping or bracing? One tiny fragile label? First, assume that your precious, fragile item will be thrown, stacked on, and handled by a gorilla on a sugar-high. Because it will be...it will be. If you d...
