Received mine today. Packaging was good to excellent; perhaps a 8 out of 10. The power switch was loose in the envelope and could be an issue with some who received the switches. Postal employees, kids, dogs, etc... may not be as careful with our little toys as we might be, possibly resulting in a damaged switch. Personally, my switch appears to be fine.
Will try to get the entire system running later today if work allows.
My $0.02 to those not happy with the shipping or product... Chill. This is a completely new product, produced by some folks that may not be experts in business and shipping, through a website that specializes in bringing new products to market. There are many, many things in this system that can stretch, strain and/or be broken.
For all I know, my own Pine64 is broken or bricked or may completely underwhelm my expectations. That is the chance we all take when funding a Kickstarter campaign. That is a chance we all take in our daily lives.
More later after I get it running.
