    Just a heads up. I recently received my Think i35 from gearbest. They shipped the package with just an envelope.
    I mean it was just the box wrapped in an envelope. That’s just crazy.

    I’m trying to see if there is any damage. Is there anything specific I should check?

    Thanks.

    Normally they double box items so not good at all, getting lazy. Check for the obvious like screen cracks.

    Thanks for the reply Chris. Yes, I was shocked when I saw it was just the box used as protection with nothing else.

    I’m looking for cracks and I’m worried about what might be wrong with it for traveling unprotected. The box was also opened and English Win 10 installed. I would have preferred to install it myself, but I guess they thought it was easier to ship it pre installed. Thinking of doing a Win 10 pro install with a Win 10 Pro key from ebay but worried about the drivers being lost.

    No, the kind of shipping protection depends on employees cause I had gotten them in both ways – without any damage. The latest in sept. had come in an envelope.

    Good luck - WOLF
