Title: If you're shipping electonic items use anti-static protection
Post by: TheDude on December 07, 2022, 09:30:49 AM

I recently purchased four pcbs off this board from different sellers and only one used esd bags to protect the item. I was surprised to open up shipping boxes and see mpu's and flash boards shipped in straight bubble wrap. Those bags are not that expensive. Hook your buyers up. :yes:

Just because its bubble wrap doesnt mean it isnt ESD protection.  I have been using this for years and you would be surprised the amount of people that question why I wouldnt send in a antistatic bag.

Pink bubble wrap and pink peanuts are anti-static, white ones are not.  There are some green ones out there too. I always ship flashboards in an anti-static bag.
