Let me ask you a question. There's a lot of fragile stuff shipped around: eggs, glassware, computer & electronic equipment, and much more. Obviously the shippers have a pretty strong incentive not to have the stuff break in transit, no? So how much of it is shipped in strong steel boxes, and how much is packed in really lightweight cardboard & styrofoam?
