So I ordered some cheap ECS motherboard on eBay (probably my first mistake), and when it arrived this morning, I noticed that the shipping container was about the size of a motherboard box. When I tore open the wrapping (a USPS Priority Tyvek envelope basically taped over the box), sure enough, inside of it was the motherboard box itself.
There's no real damage to the box, other than a slight nick or two, and the board seems to be damage free. Also, the package wasn't shipped cross country; in fact, it probably did not have to be shipped more than 50 miles.
So the $32,000 question: would you even consider hooking up the board?
