I agree with Heliphoto. Photo enthusiasts will package the lenses well before sending it to other members. After working for a Package Engineering consultant firm, I learn that the packaging is the most important part of a product, but at the same time the most under appreciated part of the business.
In contrast, after working in the Post Office for a summer in my college days, some carries saw the "Fragile" Label on some boxes and they started to play "trow and catch" game. Bubble wrap and now the air filled bags are a commodity in my workplace.
Memories.
