Box didn’t look too bad, but...do I win a prize?

That’s a sin!

 

[tonovember]

oof looks like they're still having those misaligned embossing steelbook problems :/
(that is, on top of all these damaged packages)

 

[BluSteel2012]

Despite the conspiracy theorists I don't think there's anything sinister going on here.

You must remember the volume of post from China to the UK/Europe MUST BE HUGE. They're not just shipping our Blufans items on their own!

All I can think of is that these small boxes must be mixed with larger heavier objects before they are eventually sorted and are getting crushed under the weight in the process.

Ok, I retract this statement after seeing pbtour4il's videos in the Black Panther thread.

Is it possible the handlers know the value/rarity of these and want international buyers looking to buy another replacement copy from secondary market China sellers at inflated price?

 

[Mickle_89]

So very sorry to see that @satanclaus I truly hope you're able to source a replacement. And for anyone wondering what the heck is going on with our packages and whether the damage is malicious or not, check out the following vids courtesy of @pbtour4il in the Black Panther thread...

Correct me if I'm wrong here, but based on replies from this thread, only members from Europe are getting these damaged boxes right?

Has anyone outside of Europe received such boxes from Blufans?

I never had any damage box! I got one today with other steels and it arrived in great shape but now I’m scared my Thor gets to me damaged!knock on wood!

Sorry man! What a waste of a great steelbook!

@sunnyx I’m not the only one anymore!

Mine arrived safely and I am based in Belgium

Never got a damaged item through shipping from blufans and I already ordered at least 25 steelbooks

Most of my damaged items are from Zavvi and Amazon but that's no surprise considering how they ship their items...

Damn buddy ,sorry to see your copy like that

Real sorry to see this how gutting - it indeed turning into a Black Friday day for steel book collecting

 

[DMD4k]

As appalling as those videos are, they leave more questions unanswered. Are we to believe postal workers in Beijing are much different to these "workers" (and I use that word lightly)? How is it possible that some (most?) Blufans packages arrive unscathed? Pure luck?
I ask again, in case my previous two times were overlooked... is this something relating to EMS, regular China Post or both of them? I haven't received a badly damaged one yet (touch wood) and I have not used EMS so there's that, but the quantity of packages I have received is insignificant relative to the total Blufans ship or even the total HDN members receive, so it may mean nothing at all.
My DL copy is being delivered today and I'm going to go apeshit if it's not mint.

[IRON MAN]

Congrats @Gabrielyo

 

[Gabrielyo]

Thanks, Fares.
Regards.

 

[kingkarl1967]

And exhale , just delivered box a bit battered but otherwise in perfect condition.

 

[tha_lunatic]

Maybe it's Blufans' stamp of approval???

 

[Hewitt89]

Mine’s getting delivered today, fingers crossed after seeing all this! My previous two shipments direct from Blufans have been fine though.

Packaging is a technique. sometimes more important than the steelbook itself.
