Bad packing: I didn't think the packaging was so bad when I opened it, I found that my MIB Zecora was flying around inside her box. I have no idea how that happened.

Good packing: When I got Ice Crystal, he was wrapped in bubble wrap and put inside a fancy box with silk lining. I thought I was opening a box with a fine wine or whisky inside lol.  Ice Crystal, vintage 1987.

Efficient packing: Everything from China.

Worst? Well a seller sold my an MOC ballerina baby which was in a thin bubble mailer. Needless to say it cracked the bubble badly.

Otherwise? Had excellent, considerate sellers. More good than bad!

I have had my fair share of NIGHTMARE packages.

1. Paradise Estate, boxed. Seller just wrote my name and address ON THE BOX and sealed it with icky brown tape D:
2. Brazillian Twist complete with backcard and bubble (she had been slipped out of her packaging, it was otherwise okay) only in a padded envelope. Was also covered in fag ash.
3. Ponies sent in carrier bags, so their little heads were peaking through the packaging like something out of Alien. WHY?!

Best Packing: About 10 years ago a seller from USA messaged me to say she had 8 early 80's MOC ponies left from her old toy shop and she would sell them to me for $9.95 each, sounded to good to be true as she had no pics but took a risk and came home one day to find a huge box, inside was airpockets everywhere and all ponies were wrapped in bubblewrap so they had not moved in freight. It was like 10 Christmas days at once having so many new MOC ponies. :)

Worst: Came home to find a large thin envelope with pony heads and hoofs sticking out the sides. I had bought a lot of 12 ponies with accessories from Ebay and the seller decided to chuck them all in a large thin envelope, needless to say most the accessories were gone inc two princess wands grrrr. :(
