Will it survive shipping?

I shipped my Nexus 7 2013 yesterday to a buyer, I put it in the original box which is pretty compact and put that into a box of a Dark Rock Advanced c1 cooler. (I know, lol)

 

 

But.. I didn't put any materials inside to stop the Nexus box from moving around, I did put a wireless charger in with it's box but still enough room to move around, it's not very much room, but enough to cause a little concern.

 

Would it break in shipping? I really hope not but I can't be certain.

 

Stupid move by me, but I was in a hurry.

 

It moves around so that if you flip the box the Nexus box falls down about 5 cm.

 

Normally this isn't a problem but what if a delivery guy just throws the thing.

It should be fine.

I would also think so because the original packaging of the Nexus 7 2013 is pretty compact. (Box in which you put the tablet and the charger and then lid of the box, then you shove it in another piece of box)

 

Also Gorilla Glass so it should not be that breakable.

I doubt this propaganda about shipping danger. -_-

 

Does it go past blackholes, volcanos, does the truck bounce then fall off a plane at 10000km altitude? then lend on flat rock and the use the turbo wtf booster to arrive on the moon posting center from which everything is redicrected.

 

How the fuck can a mail trip be so dangerous?! :huh:

yeah! it should be fine unless it's stepped on by godzilla or honeyboo or something , it should be able to take a few poundings as it's build for it, only thing i should be worried about is the back side getting scratched up. otherwise , just chill down & hope for the best.

Well I don't worry about the backside because it's flush in the original packaging on it's back (so backside), having more cushioning against falls. (backside of box)

 

But the glass....

it's gorrilla glass i believe, so i wouldn't worry about that , it'll be fine as far as the hardware is capable of taking a few hits on it's own. it should be good, relax , we'll worry after he get the package safe but not now. if it's broken then we'll do the panick assesment. but you're good for now.. B) stay cool..
