A package device has a packaging box and shock-absorbing members. The packaging box accommodates a display device main body with an exterior case that accommodates a display unit having a flat display panel and a drive circuit block. The shock-absorbing members are accommodated inside the packaging box so as to be disposed between the display main body and the packaging box at a top center and/or a bottom center. The shock-absorbing has first panel supporting parts that support the exterior case, and second panel supporting parts positioned on a display surface side of the display panel. The second panel supporting parts extend toward a center of the display panel from the first panel supporting parts so that gaps are formed between the display panel and the packing box. The shock absorbing members can effectively prevent damages to the thin display device due to mechanical shocks received during transportation.
