Sending my RAM back and it says in the Overclockers support section an outer box should be used..

excuse my unworldly knowledge but what is one of these?

and the ram packet is only tiny, can i just not wrap it in brown paper?

When you recieved it, the RAM packaging itself would have been in a protective box. It should be returned like this.

No!

Whatever you do don't send it wrapped in brown paper

Just put it in a smallish box.

I don't think it was tbh, not unless you mean the box everything came in which is literally 20 times the size of the RAM packaging.

Wrap it up well then put it in a jiffy bag.

Alright, seriously can't find owt to put it in that isn't ridiculously big and I want to get it back ASAP.

Help!

Send it in a comedy-sized parcel.

Seriously, it should've come with a little box that the RAM itself sat in. If not, put it in some anti-static paper and put it in a jiffy bag.

It depends what packaging the RAM came in, if it comes in its own little box (like the GeIL dual channel kit) then put the RAM in that and put it in a jiffy bag as said before.

That is indeed what I mean

. Don't through away packaging until you're sure that everything works correctly.
