I would like to preface this by saying I hope I'm posting this in the right spot. I looked around for a little bit and couldn't find anything similar.
 
The card in question will be shipped with "easy-to-open packaging".  I've bought other video cards on Amazon before and they have always just come in the EVGA box and am wondering if it will still hold the same warranty and other benefits the same? And also has anyone ever bought a VC from Amazon shipped in this way before and how was it?
 
Thank you for your time.

    Can we get a link to the product? (You will need to break it up as you can not post links till you have 20 posts.) Is it sold and shipped by amazon? That is to my knowledge the only way to get the extended warranty. Otherwise it only comes with the 3 Year from the date it was shipped from factory if sold by third parties not on EVGA's list of approved sellers.

    Welcome to the forums!
     
    I've seen this offered on Amazon, and it seems to be mainly for toys and things. The cards are really easy to get out of the boxes, so you shouldn't need this.

    Here is the link. As far as I can tell its being sold directly by Amazon.

    Thanks for the welcome.
     
    Unfortunately on the card that I want it is the only available shipping option.

    Should be just fine then. I would go ahead and order it since it is directly from Amazon.

    Make sure your Card from Amazon is Sold By Amazon and not a 3rd Party.
    Correct "Ships from and sold by Amazon.com"
    Incorrect: Ships from and sold by pcrush-outlet.or any other company name.
