If the seller would have wrote on the package, "I'm a dumb ass and I don't know how to ship properly. Be careful when opening" then that would be on the buyer. In this case, the buyer didn't know the seller didn't package it properly.

David,

Can you differentiate between a bubble mailer reinforced with industrial cardboard and a white envelope? If not, send me pics and I will suggest a strategy to open it safely.

Frank, I really don't get what you're saying. The OPs card wasn't in a plain white envelope. It was shipped loose in a bubble mailer...at least that's the way I understood it.

If you hold the package up to a light, can you see where the card is ?

Either see it or feel it, I would guess.

I think most of us, over 50% that is, could figure out how to open a package containing an $800 card, without destroying it.

Those who couldn't, I am surmising, would blame someone else.
