 I agree with you all, they overdo the packaging on things these days, ever tried to open an kid"s toy at Christmas?...first there's the outter package, then the sealed plastic, and then the twist ties, not just an few of them, one for "every" tiny part, then....the wrench....to put the thing together!  Instructions in about five different languages also.  Then three months later it gets called back for some reason or another. Makes gift giving something else these days. Not to mention you have wrapping on the floor from decorating the gift, the box it came in, the plastic sealant, and an handfull of "ties". Where did that tiny little part go to?
