It amazes me how some companies ship orders to customers. Don't they have various sized shipping envelopes, boxes, bags etc? One size does not fit all in these circumstances. It bugs me when I order a single large cone of thread and it comes in a box that could fit 10 cones inside. Or those that use an abundance of shipping tape to secure the package, so that you can't even cut the bag open safely without threat of damageing the contents. More is not always better.
