This tie arrived in a well shipped fashion. The packaging was suitable for the size of the tie. I love the colors and style that this tie brings. The only bit of misleading information was the fact that this tie is marketed as being in a matching present box set/packaging. The box the tie comes in is a cheap see-through plastic container with no design/colors. A set should imply that you are getting more than "one" of something...ie. tie/bow tie. This could lead you to believe it is a nice quality tie box that you would want to keep, however it is not mine went straight to the trash. Aside from the lack of a "present box" the tie is a great addition to my collection.
