Image below is how eBuyer shipped two Maxtor hard disks to me, in a
cardboard box with not enough bubblewrap to keep them from hitting the
sides. One of the disks died within a week, the other died a couple of
weeks ago. With Maxtor, Dabs, and Scan off my list of places to buy from
I'm left with Insight (who are more expensive).
