Hello, complete beginner, I don’t know if this is the right place to ask but can someone please help show me how to make this odd shaped box? The edge on the right side has a weird indented oval shape

Add a box and scale it (make sure you apply the scale!)
Add one cut down the middle (Ctrl-R) and select one vertex.
(Shift-Ctrl-B) to bevel vertex, scale it up along the Z axis
Triangulate (Ctrl-T) and slect the edge ring.
Bevel (Ctrl-B) and increase segments

That method is really elegant! I would have come up with something more complicated. 
Wow 
Dude, Thank you, you’re amazing!
How you done this, would you share the solution? Used a vertex group?

I have a blend file that sets up a reference image aligned to the camera then has a model with the given steps and some additional ones like flattening the “odd shape” oval using an added transformation axis and shading smooth. It also has a properly scaled version (to 11 inches tall).

good stuff guys.
Yes that would be cool if you shared the non-destructive blend file. @jcfnav
Here’s a new starter file if anyone wants to follow along.

Yes, I used vertex groups for it.
Sure, here it is.
One thing though, I had to re-scale the object after all the bevel to get the right proportions of the package and the scale is not applied, otherwise it will change the shape of the bevel.
