How would you ship a package?

Not sure what you mean - are you saying the buyer is accusing you of doing this on purpose to cover up existing damage to the glasses? Or are you asking for advice on how something should be packaged?

it's kind of both.
one part is what's the best way to package it and second yes partly cover or get some assist to solve that

I'm sorry this happened! Totally sucks! Did you get insurance? Anything over a couple hundred bucks I always request insurance.

Hi Oakley Fellows,
a friend of mine received a package with one of my glasses.
The package was totally damaged and unfortunately the glasses broke on the orbitals.
How would you send a package just to pretend that?
Myself I used a lot of plastics to pretend the glasses and using the right sizes.

Thanks for your thoughts

Is that usps small flat rate box used for a frame?

Plastic box inside cardboard box would've protected it. A few sellers here use the plastic take away boxes that the sweet'n'sour come in.

I double box mine with strong boxes peanuts in between first and second boxes . Glasses Wrapped in bubble wrap or cheap ballistic case. I use hot pink duck tape so it doesn't get lost. I work for a bank so I get free strong coin boxes. More then a few have gotten boxes labeled quarters, dime ,nickels and pennies from me

Bad, bad, bad, next time when shipping put a "fragile" sticker on it no guarantees, but this helps.

yep it was used

 

[jdd32]

yep it was used

Unless it's a pair of slivers, frogs, Brooks or wires in a hardshell, that's very ballsy to ship a frame in. There's insufficient space inside to protect from any sort of crush

Sounds like you got the raw end of the stick

When is comes to USPS....putting fragile all over the box doesn't mean mean a damn ******* thing
