How's the packaging? Sending gift and don't want the glasses breaking during transit.

They package this very well! I didn't have one piece broken when I received mine. :)

These glasses remarkably arrived unbroken. They were not double-boxed, as I felt they should have been. Shipped in the shelf box with thin cardboard separating the glasses.

I found that the packaging was good. It was shipped to us, and all the glasses were carefully packed, and were all in one piece during transit. I'd say as long as you have a good package handler, you will be fine!

The packaging should, key word is should, preclude the need for marking package fragile or glass. I ordered two sets and there was only one piece broken. Even dishes purchased in stores have broken pieces, but certainly not all of them. Perhaps you should speak with your delivery company/person. Sorry for the extreme inconvenience.

I know there are products that maintain the temperature at a safe level, such as small filled pouches with dry ice. I think this is how most shippers will use when sending their products.

My first one arrived with broken glass, but Amazon quickly sent out a replacement without charging me before my 1st was returned. The 2nd arrived within a week...not broken...and the transporters took the 1st/broken one and shipped it back to Amazon. I was completely satisfied in the end and never spent a penny doing the swap.

It is extremely heavy due to the glass. IKEA sell these for $69 each. You can buy on-line from the IKEA store so I assume they are OK for shipping. We bought ours from an IKEA store and loaded into our vehicle. It is toughened glass so should not break. No guarantees :)

I ordered the white wine glasses about a year ago and the best I can remember is that they were in a box wrapped in bubble wrap and then placed in a larger box with packing. I just received this same brand red wine glasses and they came in a flatter package but were wrapped in A LOT of bubble wrap, taped, and then placed in a larger box with that blow up pillow kind of packaging. All glasses were intact when they arrived. Sadly, I have managed to break one of the original glasses. I would, and probably will, order replacement glasses when needed.

Yes, I have ordered twice and the first time I had one broken glass in the shipping - the second time all glasses were undamaged.

Hi Christopher! You'll have ask the seller...I'm just a customer. When I received the item the packaging was ok.

They ship in a box.. I wouldn't be too concerned with scratches these crates are quite resilient. These are the same cases that supermarkets get their milk delivered in... Very we'll made

The glasses are quite sturdy and none were broken. In my opinion the box the glasses came in should have been packaged inside another insulated box when it shipped.

I think they were boxed for shipment with dividers, but I got mine quite a while back and I don't remember. I know the whole order did arrive intact with no chips or breakage. And after ten months of daily use none of the glasses have chipped or broken, so they seem pretty sturdy.

We ordered and received 3 of these from Amazon without a problem. They were packed on Styrofoam and perhaps bubble wrap. They are stoneware, so breakable. Pack well inside and out and place in strong carton and they should ship okay. Hope this helps...

Comes in decent packaging. Glasses themselves come with a strong case to store them in.

Thank you for your question. I am not entirely clear on the nature of the question; however, if you are asking about the possibility of the item arriving in anything less than mint condition then please be advised that we cannot force the postal service to handle every package properly -- damage does occur on occasion. Still, we have a success rate of over 99% for items arriving as described. We ship the item in a sturdy cardboard shipping tube that should protect it sufficiently while the package is in transit. In cases where an item arrives damaged, we generally ask the buyer to provide us with a digital picture of the item and the shipping container so that we can confirm the damage. Once this has been taken care of, we generally send a free replacement if we have ne in stock or issue a full refund for the order if we do not. Please let me know if I can assist you with anything else. Thanks Matt Bananaroad

The mugs I ordered were packaged well in a sturdy box with lots of paper padding. Hope this helps!

Hi Felicia, They packed pretty well. Protected by bubble wrap inside the box. All wafels arrived safely at my residence.

Difficult to say whether or not Amazon does a good job packaging because my lens came from them through a third party supplier (actually local to me here in Phoenix) not directly from Amazon. The packaging was okay. The lens was in its own box, of course, and that was in a far larger box surrounded by those plastic air pouches. Also, as I recall, it was delivered by UPS. On the whole, a not unreasonable delivery and package. The lens was certainly in fine shape. But I do understand the concern - it's a sizable investment.
