Like some reviews, the packaging for shipping could be improved. When I received the nails, the box was torn open and all the nails were in the shipping box. Almost all the nails were still strips. Not a big deal to me, just some tape to secure the box. For the price I wanted to try it and I'm glad I did, after all even some broken sticks still hammer nails. It's worth the price to order. I always order Dewalt whenever I can, the packaging on their nails is much better and shipworthy.
