Packaging:

As you can see from the pictures below, the case packaging took quite a bit of abuse during the trip from Taiwan. Never the less, the front and back of the box identically depict the case within. They also feature several smaller images that show the many features of this case. The sides are also identical and offer an image of the case without the top cover and list the case specifications in multiple languages. Despite the damage to the shipping box, the external packaging does an excellent job of letting the buyer know the specifics of the case within.

Removing the case from the box reveals that despite the outward appearance, the case is undamaged and nicely protected.
