Day 74 in Beijing: Packaging

I needed to buy some utensils from the Chinese Amazon.com.

Since it is primarily in Chinese,

and I don’t read Chinese at all,

my co-worker helped me order what I needed.

She then paid with her account and I paid her back in cash.

I knew the delivery would come to my apartment so I waited for it a few days later.

I’m used to the classic brown Amazon box with the smile on it that is also an arrow.

It is a great advertising logo since it promotes the buyer to feel happy and get the expectation that the product is shipping directly to you in a very quick manner.

That is what happens in America.

Four different boxes.  Four different materials.

Woven and unbreakable.  It took me a decent amount of time to get it undone.

Well,

As we say here: TIC.

This Is China.

Personally, I like these much more than the basic Amazon box.  Especially the one with the woven material that was incredibly strong and unbreakable.
