I just sold my MacBook and was wondering how everyone has received their macbook. Was it shipped in just the MacBook white box w/ handle or was it shipped in another box with more padding? Please state where you received The MacBook from also (Apple, Amazon etc). Thanks!

Apple ships them with a brown cardboard box around the white box w/ handle.

Ours had 4 styrofoam corner protectors floating the colorful MacBook box inside the brown plain wrap carton.
