i just bought a head of ebay and this is how it was packed,
good to see people actually use ther heads,
and its a good thing it was packed like this because when i picked it up from the sorting office they guy basically threw it on the counter :angry:

I bought a turbo off the turbo forum, and when it got here the cardboard had pretty much ripped, with the turbo pretty much falling out. It had been bubble wrapped but the weight of it just destroyed the cardboard box :mmkay:
