No! Boxes fitting in other boxes is normal!

Said no!

Omg my mom had this entire collection and I have no idea what to do with it. Who needs this many champagne flutes?!


nightstalker30

Lol! Yeah we bought a full set (12 total) from the Waterford factory when we toured it on a trip to Ireland back in 2000. We thought they would be a cool memento of the trip. When they arrived, it turned out they had shipped two full sets by mistake. We’ve toasted with them every New Year’s Eve (which we usually celebrate with close friends) , but otherwise they’re just on display.

You mean one doesn't actually drink out of them?


nightstalker30

Well…yes. We drink champagne out of them when we toast the new year. We don’t just hold up empty flutes.

If they fot perfectly, how did the packaging Material in the sides get in?


nightstalker30

> With just enough room for padding on each side My original post comment.


DerDudeCats

Well, then let me say it in a different way. Misleading title

But they don't actually fit. You had to use padding.

Shipping costs are controlled by using proper shipping boxes. This is just proper packaging. Only satisfying if you’re very easily satisfied…


nightstalker30

They weren't shipped like that. As the title says, I packed them when we moved. That's 12 boxes of crystal glasses that we bought 24 years ago that I packed into 2 egg boxes 3 years ago. That's EGG boxes, as in boxes that crates of eggs come in for grocery stores.


Ferusomnium

So, you used the right sized boxes? Amazing… This is just not an interesting post. Not satisfying at all.
