Got my new cell phone wrapped in newspaper

[Mac1337]

Received a reply form the seller. Says the phone is brand new and if I don't believe him to call Motorola with the serial #. About the box, he says he did not promise that it comes in factory box. In all my years of purchasing on eBay I never had to worry about it. Were it not for the fact that I bought as a gift, it may not have mattered that much.

My real question is what happened to all the boxes? Do they bulk in bulk?
