Is this really how people ship frames?

I bought a frame and fork off ebay. Anyways it took the guy 8 days just to ship it.

So today I finally received the frame. I open the box and the frame was just zipped tied to the side, no packing, and the fork was zipped tired to the other side which did not hold and ripped the small area of cardboard holding it and just basically left to rattle around in the box. This is only my second bike/frame I have had to shipped to me, but my first one I thought was inadequately packed, until I saw this one.

I dont know if I should raise hell about it to the seller or what. I dont know how structurally sound the fork is now. It shipped from CA to MO, so who knows how much rattling around could have happened. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. The pic is kind of at an bad angle but the fork is just laying loose on the bottom.
