BlackBerry 10 Limited Edition Trade-up

[ndsmyter]

I finally received the mail that my application was accepted for the trade-up program.

But after I filled in the form to receive the device, I received a mail saying "Please ensure your Alpha device is packaged in a shipping box and the shipping label secured (if applicable).". I was wondering if anybody knows what type of shipping box they mean? Because this probably depends on the shipping service they are using? Where do I have to buy that (living in Belgium btw) such a box?

Would the box in which I received the device be enough, or are they expecting a real shipping box?

And as soon as I know which box I need, maybe it would be helpful to know the contents of the box. Do we need to send only the phone, or also the charger? I'll probably send both anyway, because I received a US charger (and I live in Belgium as mentioned). Do we need to send something else with it?

tl;dr: Where do I get such a box? Do I have to buy one? What are the specs of such a box?

I am interested for an answer to this too. especially an official answer from RIM Staffs

They said it depends in which country you are, and we will get all necessary infos depending on region where we are.

I think it's better to use the same shipping service they used to send us.

[ndsmyter]

But I received it on a BB Jam, so there was no shipping for me. So I have no idea which shipping service they use..

[nemoryoliver]

I already got 2 dev alphas. and they were shipped by FedEx. So it's FedEx maybe you should use bro.

I guess just wrap up the dev alpha in the box you got it in. Then just put a label on top of it. That should do the trick. Anyway just wait for their email for further information

I would think they simply want to make sure the device is not damaged in transit. Use an "appropriate" box. If you aren't sure that the box it came in is appropriate, take it to your shipping company/courier/post office or whatever and get their advice.... they're the experts.

I'm wondering why it is so important to handle this bricked device so carefully. They will be recycled for sure.

I am just assuming but i think RIM will have a way to unbrick these and use them as internal testing devices since they have remarkable hardware in them. Would be a waste to just recycle them
