Packaging decision

I’m ordering a new product that is somewhat breakable resin (has some fragile parts) that will be in a box of likely 1 ft cubed. It will be packed in styrofoam. Where I’ve gone wrong on previous orders (ceramics) is letting manufacturer use a brown cardboard box and then the FBA warehouse decides to just ship without any other packaging. The brown also looks kind of shitty if they go low quality and this is giftable.

I know from some of my RA returns that a white box cardboard with graphics won’t even necessarily stop them from doing that, but does seem to reduce it. And from opening cases, learned that it is not possible to control the packaging Amazon chooses.

For my ceramics, my expensive work around was to send them for bubble wrap prep because then it would obviously need another box and I’d like to avoid that.

Should I go for a thiner white paperboard box and hope it causes the box to be shipped with outer packaging? Or go with a sturdier brown box and hope that the packaging is sturdy enough to be mailed in (since it’s not ceramic this time). Or is there another packaging type I’m not thinking of?
