Amazon is opening brand-new Razr boxes to fold the phones for safer shipping

I don't see why the Amazon employees cannot use gloves (as they probably actually should).

It sounds more like a marketing/publicity idea/stunt :

>RAZR was meant to be shipped in the unfolded position. However, in order to better protect the display we have folded your RAZR – it’s safer, but may not look as elegant as we hoped. We apologize if you see fingerprints on your device, but we assure you your RAZR is brand new.

I stopped buying electronics from Amazon for this reason. They open all video card boxes and it is very likely you will not get the card you ordered. I was ripped off twice by them. Shame on me for falling for it twice.
