Packaging in video reviews?

Contributor: Not here Not here
I voted that I'm indifferent. I don't really care what the packaging looks like because that doesn't necessarily mean it will be a good product or not. I agree with most that if the packaging is especially nice or good for storage that it is one thing to show it in a video review, but I won't be upset if it's not shown in the video.

Packaging won't affect my purchase, but I do find it interesting.

Sometimes packaging of a toy just looks cheap and inappropriate. Honestly, I'd much rather have sophisticated packaging on a toy, especially if I'm spending a lot of money on it. Additionally, from other sites I've ordered from in the past, the packaging can be hugely important, especially if what's inside a package is easily identifiable to the delivery person! (Yes, it has happened. -.-) I think video reviews should always at least briefly mention the packaging.

I agree.

I like to see the packaging regardless. Also because I'd like to know how it'll have to be stored before I buy. I do really appreciate nifty, unique packaging that can be kept, instead of having to toss out a flimsy box or plastic card, though.

It's nice to see the packaging, but I don't care if it's not shown. The product is what I'm really interested in.

I think the packaging is important if the item is promoted as a great gift idea (for like bridal parties and so on). But usually the packing doesn't bother me. If I'm very impressed with it, I will mention how it's packaged. For example, I have a ceramic dildo that was BEAUTIFULLY boxed!!!

I like to see the packaging. Preferably, I like to watch the person take the toy out of the packaging - that makes it really clear what my experience with the toy will be like if/when I purchase it.

I show packaging but I try not to do it for very long, I think it is important as part of the products image.

I care about the product, not the packaging. I would only show it 1)if it is damaged 2) if it is cool/adds to the product. For instance some of the vibs have cool metal boxes. : )

I like to see and show the packaging, because for me it is a big deal. Can I store it in it? Does it have giant penises on it? Is it made of crappy plastic?

I keep my packaging, but I pack everything back in it how it came, so that I can take it out of the package like I'm first getting it and how battery insertion and all that. If it doesn't come in a clamshell or box, I usually just do away with it. I've actually saved my boxes for everything I've gotten.

packaging is nice just because i can if i can use it to store it once i get my toy. if i don't have packaging shown, it doesn't make the review any less useful though

I think that unless its unique, as in doubles as storage or so on, then its not usefull to me and a waste of time. watching that is. I dont do videos I sound like a child

I've noticed that a few things on here have different packages pictured than the ones that actually arrive. I think it's good to show it so you can see if you'll be able to use it for storage and such.

I like to see the packaging, but only very quickly. I don't really want to see a full unboxing, and I don't like when more than 1/4 of the video is about the packaging. I care significantly more about the toy & that is why I watch the reviews. Packaging is just something that is kind of nice to see.
