To be fair the element is still intact and I havent actually tested them yet so maybe I'm being a bit hastey complaining about it

It was mildly padded but I'm not sure how that is supposed to protect a dome constructed of very fine glass

Never have a problem here, it came all the way from the channel islands so probably had lots of disgruntled RM staff stamping on it

I know there are chances of it arriving, but to be honest the evelope is going to end up in a massive bag full of other letters and parcels and then proceed to be thrown around and knocked about in the back of a van. Chances are the bubble wrap isnt going to protect it.
