Default What comes in the order?

A box or bag. CD, manual etc. Just curious.

Yep. CD and Manual. The CD inside a sleeve case stuffed in the manual, with the whole thing shrinkwrapped.

My CD came in the mail twice, and both times it was jammed in my mailbox and bent...fortunately I've got lots of heavy textbooks to flatten 'em out!

That's about the only disadvantage to Shrapnel's shipping style. People don't realize there is a CD in there, so they think the book should be able to bend.

Or they don't care either way. In this case it only matters because a jewel case or cardboard box is less flexible than a manual.

From the shipping co's pov, they will have no way of knowing, and even if they did those disks would still have a good chance of breaking without a case or at least some good cardboard.
