This comes in a no frills cardboard box that it's shipped in, with none of the plastic and ties retail packaging contains to deter theft.

Frustrating free packaging is when you don't need heavy duty scissors and tools to get the toy out of the box and you can play with immediately. Retail package is when it take twenty minutes to release the toy from the box that it came in due to all the screws, ties, straps etc. and strength.

There is no substantive difference with respect to the device and charging unit. "Retail packing" looks like packaging you would see in a store. "Bulk packing" is simpler, smaller and less decorative. But the device and charger are the same as those contained in the fancier "retail packaging".

I think frustration free must refer to he outer box it comes in because the jug is the same as retail. Outer packaging is a box with a cut cardboard tube as a spacer/protection for the neck of the jug.

There is a normal and frustration free packaging. Normal is its display box. Frustration free is a brown box which is easier to take the toy out of.

I believe they are the same except for packaging. (AFFP means Amazon Frustration-Free Packaging.)

Retail packaging includes a nice plastic pox. Otherwise I don't believe there is any difference between the contents.

I think the difference is just packaging. This product has no box, instead just plastic zip.

"Frustration-Free Packaging is an Amazon initiative designed to alleviate "wrap rage" by featuring products in recyclable boxes that are easy to open and contain fewer excess materials." That's from Amazon's FAQ: http://www.amazon.com/gp/help/customer/display.html?nodeId=200404820I choose it when offered because the boxes really are easier to open, are eco-friendly, and don't have all the excess packing material inside so there's less waste. It is a marketing tool for sellers and a benefit for customers - at least I think so.

I bought one of these last year for my bf's (then 5 y.o.) son. I don't remember if I chosethe 'Frustration Free' packaging, but his came in a cardboard box, with the gun inside the Red Ryder box inside of that.Either way, it was not frustrating at all.

Frustration free packaging is literally just a box within a box which opens up. I think standard packaging has other papers Styrofoam etc. in it which is messier

The standard packaging is the same thing you would find in the store. Frustration free packaging is where you can open everything up without needing a grenade, large hunting knife or nuclear explosive device. For some items, it is certainly worth it especially for things bound in blister packs which are either sealed with heat or crimped on the outside. For this item, I have not seen the normal packaging but the frustration free was super easy.

i wish i had read this earlier. it looks like the frustration-free packaging comes with two brush heads while the retail packaging only comes with one. i would have gotten the frustration-free packaging if i had known that.

My sets came in the straight packing box with dividers instead of the fancy box in the packing box. Kind like bulk buying. I think that is what it means "frustration-free" packaging.

Hi Susan The diffrence between the 80 frustration free packaging and the 85 count is. That the 80 frustration free packaging is that it will not be hard to unpackage when you recive the item.The 85 count will be a little harder to open. Frustration free packaging means it will not very hard to open

The frustration free packaging is a plain cardboard box and the standard packaging is the showcase packaging which is a sealed plastic container that you almost have to destroy to get at the Bluetooth device. I almost broke the device trying to get it out of the std packaging!

Frustration free packaging means the product is not shipped in the normal package you would get off the shelf of the store. It is often easier to open/unpack and has less to throw out.
