When I receive one that has been wrapped by a "professional", I can plan to spend at least 10 minutes getting it out of the wrapping.  The bubble wrap only has to be secured by one or two pieces of tape to keep it in place.

I don't know if this would be treated differently since a UPS store did the packaging. I hate seeing things damaged this way. Usually now I interrogate how they intend to package items, which is often not well received but hopefully saves the distress of seeing nice equipment needlessly banged up.
