I was thinking that very thing. The same thing happenens to me. Big fuck off box, one tiny toy

Yep, they are pretty bad when sending small things.

Hmv are equally bad. Ordered 10 DVDs once and they sent each one individually, in their own box and everything.

You're not wrong. I once bought something small and quite unbreakable, think it might have been a whisk. It came in a huge box with literally metres of bubble wrap.

As they're so loathe to 'waste' their money paying taxes you think they'd be less reluctant to throw so much money away on packaging.

i would send that in a jiffy bag or a book envelope.

let them know

Unfortunately it's a computer system which decides what packaging it's sent in, so the packer is probably as perplexed as u as to why it's so stupidly packed (used to work in an amazon warehouse)

I think I will let them know thank you for the link Oddboots.

YANBU.

I was also baffled by the M&S Outlet packaging - which is "powered by Amazon". A pair of baby trousers arrived in Amazon book/DVD packaging, a cardboard sleeve.

Countless huge boxes from Amazon for small items.
