As far as the peanuts go I can take or leave them and in this case I am glad Harry went with them because of the palm trees which enhance the piece since I do not believe there have ever been trees this thin and this tall ever used before.

There has been some comments on the price of the piece but you have to realize this is 2019 and not 2010 when HLs went out of business. Prices have gone up and so have materials. The only thing that hasn't changed is Harry's quality and quality cost money. By adding fitted foam, the price of the piece would have gone up and maybe the breakage might have also gone up because of less flexibility.
