Why has packaging for toys and other things become almost impossible to open?

Its all a scheme to promote the sales of chainsaws..

if you can't it open regularly, take a paper clip and put it in this tiny hole on the front of the dvd drive. this should open it, but be careful.

I think it deters theft by making it impossible to sneak an item out of its packaging and into your pocket.

If this issue has been occuring recently, just go to My Computer, select Tools>Folder Options>Select Restore Defaults.  I guess that helps.  If it doesn't, select the General Tab under Folder Options and select the option "Double-click to open an item" and select OK.

Having worked in a strict environment, the store I worked, had a special stock rack in storage.  When there were enough of a similar item, it was repackaged and sent back to the manufacturer, for either a replacement or a refund.  That is why you see a lot of RA #'s (Return Authorization Numbers) on a lot of packages shipped through UPS and Federal Express.  No store that has good ethics will resell a product, that is even in suspect condition, they will always send it back....

I try, i recycle and try very hard not to waste water, but i always feel so guilty everytime i put another plastic milk bottle in the bin or a juice carton etc... it is scary to think how much packaging is used and thrown into the bin. I think we should be writing to retailers and asking them to reduce their packaging. I purchase products for the product inside, not the wrapping. I think in the future people may end up living like humans used to in the past with out electricity and cars. We should all do our bit, and get on the case of the people who make the decisions.  Great, thought provoking question.

I bet you saw my question!\n\nI think that the reason we can't figure it out is because it is totally obvious, and everyone is looking for a less immediate and very complicated technology. I would imagine it is actually a very simple design.\n\nBut an even easier solution would be to try and find the box. Surely he would not have destroyed it!

Wow.  You're asking a lot of questions about toys.  Thinking of Christmas or reminiscing??  I think that game is still around.  A lot of the older games and toys are making a comeback.  But luckily with the internet, whatever you want you tend to get now.  You just gotta know where to look.  :)

Years ago when my older sister and I were much younger when our parent's were at work , we would very carefully pull the tape off of our present's , so we could see what we got . \nIf it was a toy we were really wanting , we would totally unrap it , open the box , and actually play with it . \nWhen we were done , we would box it back up and very very carefully slide it back into the christmas paper , and we would use new scotch tape to tape them back up ... \nWe only got caught once lol !

Hi\n Just try this one. And i think it will solve it. O.K.\n\nGoto 'my computer' --> 'tools' --> 'folder options' --> click 'item as follows --> check the 'Double click t open an item' - > click apply.\n\nThats it...\n\nnsrajesh

there will be rubber covereings above the hex nuts below the base. try starting from there.the board will be faced down so becare full. later you need to open the titanium caseing(in latest models only) its a very delicate process and tough,thats is you will find the grand opening .all the best.and importantly, try the manual first.bye.

I don't know.  I can open it.  I looked at it yesterday.  You might have some sort of blocking software shutting it down.

Lots of luck.   I remember those things and they were very fragile.  It is possible that some of the bigger comic shops might have it but its unlikely that they would part with it but you could get an idea of where they got theres

Probably the button is broken :)\nJust so you know there is usually a manual open button that looks like a little pinhole on the cd-drive. \nThis probably isn't a software issue because if it was, no software would be able to open the CD-drive either. Nearly 99% chance of a hardware problem.

For many years, this was the cheapest shape to manufacture and consistently affix labels to. Newer technologies are changing that rapidly, mostly because cylinders are the most wasteful volume to ship (except spheres, which are wholey impractical).
