The graphic novel I ordered in Brand New condition was shipped in a snug envelope the same size as the book. While the envelope had a single-layer in-lining of bubble wrap, that did little if anything to protect the corners of the book in transit. That said, while the corners are no longer pristine as the "Brand New condition" listing denoted, the book still arrived in overall Like New condition on the predicted date. I'm a reader, not a collector, but a little extra padding would've been nice.
