Amazon sent a customer a single bottle of nail polish in a box, big enough to fit both of her feet, filled with brown paper.
The 30-year-old woman, from Southampton, who wished to remain anonymous, was shocked to open the large box and find the tiny bottle of polish inside.
To illustrate the ‘madness’ of Amazon’s packaging, she took a picture of both her feet fitting comfortably inside the box, and put the image on the firm’s Facebook page.

The shopper, speaking today, said: ‘It’s madness. No other items were in the box’
She wrote: ‘Reasons I love Amazon – on Prime they deliver my stuff quickly.
‘Reasons I hate Amazon – if both my size five feet can fit in the box (probably twice over judging on depth) why do you send just one nail polish in it?
‘Why not use a little folder like you do for books? I’ve said it before but this continues to be ridiculous.
The shopper, speaking today, said: ‘It’s madness. No other items were in the box.
‘They have done it a few times and I just don’t see the logic behind creating so much waste.
‘It had a load of the brown paper they use stuffed in there. I don’t see why they didn’t just use the little folder type thing they use for DVD and books.’
She wrote: ‘Reasons I love Amazon – on Prime they deliver my stuff quickly. ‘Reasons I hate Amazon – if both my size five feet can fit in the box (probably twice over judging on depth) why do you send just one nail polish in it?’
The woman showed how big the bubble wrapping was as well by putting her hand in it
In December last year Amazon were condemned for delivering a tiny battery in packaging the size of a shoe box.
The button-type battery sent to Matt Harris used up approximately a quarter of one percent of the volume of the box and would have fitted around 400 times over.
The 38-year-old from Hook, Hampshire, recorded a video of himself unboxing the ludicrous package and posted it online with the caption: ‘Someone’s taking the packaging of items to the extreme.’
