Title: Do Underworks binders come in discreet shipping boxes?
Post by: bucks on September 01, 2014, 06:05:27 PM
I'm trying to buy my first ever binder (woo) but I really don't want anyone in my family to find out about it, and my parents are always awake before me so see the mail first. Can anyone tell me how they ship their items, so I know if I'll have any awkward questions to answer?

(also apologies if this is in the wrong board? I'm new here)

Hi there!

Underworks does ship in extremely discreet boxes. I've ordered several binders from them and they've come in plain cardboard boxes. The shipping label only says "Simple Solutions" and inside is the binder and an invoice. I can't recall if the invoice actually says Underworks on it or not but regardless. The whole package is very discreet and could be almost anything based solely on appearance.

Hope this helped!

Best,

Mine came in a cardboard envelope, rather than a box. It was small enough that I could probably have used "it's paperwork" as an excuse, but I just said it was a "slimming undershirt."

The packaging was totally discreet, though. I was happy with it.

My husbands came in a fed ex plastic envelope.

Maybe fed ex being we are in canada? but just a plain jane everyday shipping envelope.

Same as mine, and it did have the "Simple Solutions" up in the corner.  It is funny how it comes in different packaging.  Mine was just the standard U.S. shipping.

I got it in a plain envelope as well, maybe because one binder was all that I ordered so no need to put it in a box. But yea, very discreet.

Mine came in a FedEx cardboard envelope. The sender was called Simple solutions, not Underworks.

Ah, thank you all for the confirmations! It reduces a lot of stress knowing I'll be able to lie and say it's just craft stuff or whatever.
