Mine fit through the letterbox, it was part of the reason I bought my house ;-)

Shame that joypads and other large items don't fit, those I do have to get up to get hold of, and our doorbell is extremely loud, so I usually have to peel myself off the ceiling first before going to open the door.

When will they come? Well, if they are released then SR will send them as soon as they get them in, they're usually really good at this, I got my GTA:Vice City yesterday. Not a bad delivery service considering.

Jiffy box, like the guy said. Seems pretty durable, although it doesn't fit through the letterbox so you need to get your lazy self out of bed to answer the door. Usually the disks fall out of the holder in PS2 cases because Sony are tight gets, but yeah.

Why do you want to know?

Seriously...

They come in a box. To ensure that the games arrive on release day, the boxes have time delay locks so that you can only get at the game exactly as they are released. Such mechanisms are remotely operated by SR which means that, when a game is delayed, they will push the lock open date back on games they ahve shipped because, as we all know, delayed games are always ready to be shipped...
