Yes, it is. Perhaps I am overreacting, but I think I might return them and look for a mint condition used pair that comes with the original packaging.

USPS just dropped my shipment off a couple of minutes ago, and the outer carton is way too small and light for it to the old packaging. I'm kicking myself for not ordering last month, but I was indecisive and couldn't decide what to buy. Boxes and packaging are actually kind of important to me. Ugh!

Mine are scheduled to be delivered later today, so I couldn't tell you from personal experience yet, but from the latest pictures that people have been posting on Drop, they unfortunately don't. :( It looks like quite a recent change too. I'm a bummer. I really wanted the fancy box with hinges and the foam inserts.
