The product, in the report: Sandisk Sansa clip zip 4GB mp3 player
I purchased a Sansa Clip Zip 4gb MP3 player from a local Radio Shack store.
I was injured when I tried to remove the product from it’s packaging. There was an outer box (stiff paper product) that wasn’t a problem. However, inside the box there were two layers of an extremely stiff plastic that was VERY difficult to open. Even though I was being very careful when I tried to get through the plastic, I cut myself badly. I wasn’t cut by the instrument I was using, I was cut by the stiff plastic packaging material itself. The plastic material was rigid enough to act as a “knife” when it had an exposed edge.
I accept that packaging needs to protect the product from damage, however, this could/should be done in a way that doesn’t risk the safety of the consumer.
When I called Sandisk about the incident, the customer service rep told me that I could find a video on You Tube that shows you how to open the package safely!!
