That's never been the case for me (so far). In fact, nearly every Amazon package from the UK or Germany has arrived with the box torn open and crushed (the boxes appear to be more flimsy that the one's we get ordering from Amazon US which only makes the matter worse). Interior packing is non-existent (as is the case for most US orders). I try to avoid ordering anything that could be fragile for this reason. In contrast, Amazon Japan orders are packed in a thicker cardboard box, and the contents are plastic wrapped to a cardboard plate inside that box to prevent movement during transit or to thwart anyone that would try to open a corner of the box and steal part of the contents. And that box usually arrives in impeccable condition as well.
