It would be nice if they had a category for limited edition things, where it may cost a few more dollars to ship it but the category makes then warehouse take special precautions when packaging. Of coarse this will never happen with the big retailers like Amazon... they just sell way too much stuff and too many different kinds of stuff.
I would think that Amazon above all other retailers could make that work. They've got algorithms for every item they sell and organize them all based on size (not category). If they flagged an item as requiring some additional packaging they could build that into their algorithms for packaging and it'd be no big deal. (Saw a detailed inside look report at the way they do things the other day, so that's why I say that)

I'm just sad as this is the first "semi-rare" collectible I've purchased from them and it is hands down the WORST packaging I've ever seen from them - the packaging consisted ONLY of one piece of rolled up paper (not even 2 to keep the item from the corners). The funny thing is I got an email yesterday from them about "rate our packaging"... Oh you better believe ill be rating it haha
