Which peripheral item in the box clinched the decision for you, and why was that more important than the functionality of the damn item you bought?

Had already checked some reviews on the models I was considering. I wasn't specifically looking for an 'unboxing' video, but if you're wondering about the experience you're going to have if you order that product, the unboxing video is the spoiler you're looking for.
You can see a static image of the HyperX Cloud II on their site, but there's far more information in a video showing you exactly what to expect if you order that product. The packaging is not shoddy, and it's all neatly arranged in a solid and attractive box that's protected by a removable outer shell.
The site contains a lot of information about the headset models, but there is no image or information about the packaging itself. Ever bought a product where the packaging made you wonder if you'd made a mistake, and left you questioning whether the company had cheaped out on the product too? That's the only unboxing video I recall watching, but I think it tipped me toward the HyperX line over the other options.
The headset is pretty functional too.

Why does attractiveness of literal trash you're going to throw away influence your decision on completely unconnected hardware? I have no idea what you mean by the "experience" either.
No. What? It's cardboard.
