I looked online to find a halfway decent copy of a Charizard card to add to my Pokémon card collection. I didn't want to pay $200+ so I spent some time on ebay looking around. I found one that looked promising and won it for basically $63 after taxes. It took forever to get to me and when it did, this is what was in the package.
It was packaged like this, clipped into a DVD case. No penny sleeve, no top loader. It was put into a Ziploc bag and clipped into place, then put in a bubble mailer.
This has to be the worst shipping I've ever seen. The card was missing ink in spots that weren't apparent in the photos and the bag itself had some specks of dirt in it. I think that was the fastest I've ever requested a return on ebay. The search continues. I found an alternate, so we'll see how it works out.

I'm beside myself giggling at this😂😂😭
Like why a DVD case for a card?
That's bizarre 😭
I have no clue. Typical card shipping etiquette is a penny sleeve and top loader, with either backing boards or taped between sheets of cardboard. Bizarre describes this perfectly.

STOPWhat a disappointment, friend. I hope your search gets resolved.
Yeah, I don't understand why people don't do a better job at taking photos and packing items.
I found something else in the meantime, so it's all good.

That seller is seriously well protected—looks like they really get the whole recycling thing. Believe me, I know all about that crap from back when I used to build my decks. At least it didn't show up in a sleeve sandwiched between two pieces of cardboard taped together with half a roll of duct tape, where you have to peel it apart with tons of patience and, above all, extreme care.
Yeah, if someone did that to ship a card it better be the most pristine card ever to be worth that amount of effort.

Aie was an interesting thing to receive.

I was actually thinking it was pretty clever to put it in a DVD case like that. Shows how much I know! :)
I agree it would've been if they had also put it in a hard case for cards. Then nobody would suspect what it was.

I guess @bozz doesn’t realize upvotes need to reach 2 Cents to receive a payout…
It's frustrating when you have the prospect of receiving something good and it turns out to be a bad experience
For sure. Fortunately, I was able to return.
