Unless I have experience with them, I always suggest detailed packing methods to the sellers in a polite way. I even offer to pay extra if the seller feels I'm being excessive.

In spite of that, some eBAY sellers have completely disregarded my instructions in the past and damaged the items. (See related thread in Yankee Trader section re. reasons to avoid eBAY) http://forum.talkingmachine.info/viewto ... =9&t=15877
