Sounds great! Again, just let me know if I can help.

I see what you're saying and I agree with you, but not totally. BigBadToyStore does this, and I have selected the option before (it's usually something like $2-$4). The difference is that with BigBadToyStore if you don't select that option, your item is still packaged well and it's still going to arrive in very nice condition (at least in my experience). If I'm buying something advertised as a "collectible", it ought to be in darn near perfect condition without me having to pay extra over and above the several hundred dollar price tag. Appropriate packaging materials should be accounted for in the pricing to begin with, because it has to be shipped anyway. I guess if DR gets to the point of consistently providing near-perfect items, then I might be willing to consider splitting hairs about the differences between a 9 and 10. Right now I'm just thinking about baby steps I guess.

Sorry Knight. I empathize.
