Some days, I love Amazon.com.   I have a “Prime” membership that I use and abuse the living daylights out of. 80 dollars to have unlimited 2nd day air and buy products tax free is great.   They don’t always have the best price, but when you yank the shipping and tax out of ordering goods the price difference is often acceptable anyway.

However, sometimes their shipping centers need to be spanked with a 2×4 studded with nails.   I ordered what amounts to the “standard” package of extras for the Wii on Tuesday.  Wii Play, another Nunchuck, Zelda, etc.   The shipping center’s idea for packaging this was to shove all my items on their end in a box with no padding.   UPS went, “Oh nice, a crush toy!” and promptly crushed the living daylights out of it. 

I hope everything still works.  The Wii Play box was pretty beat up..
