Hi all, I thought I'd start a guide on miscellaneous things like how to open the a box without causing a crease in the box flap.
Personally I really found this to be a "box saver" ever since I saw a shop owner do it in Hongkong years ago, it kinda does makes sense since we sometimes scrutinize a box for dents and dings, only to later on cause a crease in the middle of the box flap ourselves when we open the toy.
Here's how to do it:
- get a ruler and try to get flip the tips/corners of the boxflap out, it's the actually the only thing holding the boxflap down. Do it on both sides of the flap and the box will easily open without a problem.
If you're experienced enough, you can use any flat object like keys, or a box cutter blade to open the box flap.
Please feel free to share or add any tips you may have to this thread.
