Clever these Chinese.

Hi

I have been buying a few things recently.

How do they get them in the boxes?

They come all nice and neat, take them out and there is no way that I can get them back in the box neatly, the things just do not fit back in.

Re: Clever these Chinese.

I've experienced this problem too many times.
Recently took a bed topper from its packaging or I should say it 'ballooned' out of the packaging. Absolutely no hope getting that back where it belonged
Happens too often, mind you, I'd have liked a camera on the pair of us 'trying' to get some items back in their box

Re: Clever these Chinese.

Theyre very good at origami and paper folding arnt they ? Maybe that all helps with getting things back into their wrappers/boxes

Well they should include a wrapper at the ready - just a call away

Re: Clever these Chinese.

They do seem to have a knack with getting stuff into boxes alright, I’ve bought a lot stuff from China on the net over the years and never once did anything not work or was damaged on arrival, they are very obliging and very polite when you are dealing with them too, a pleasant change these days.

I have no complaints on that score - just wish they would think about the packaging, its not just them of course

Christmas lights !!! No way are they ever going back in the box they came in, always have a plastic bag or box handy cos they are impossible to repack..
