Just a word of warning to all Ninja's that ordered this from the Zavvi website the other day, mine has just arrived in an A1 cardboard envelope no protection at all. No wonder Zavvi's got a bad rep.

I'm guessing your copy was dispatched from the UK mainland distribution centre...

Yes it was.

Return address on the envelope is Warrington.

I'm guessing that means that every copy will be shipped the same way. Disaster. I'm glad I decided to skip this one now.

 

[HUBMUSWELL]

Yes it was.

Return address on the envelope is Warrington.

Did yours arrive damaged? I don't think Warrington has the white box packaging

No It managed to survive unscathed thank god, imagine asking for a replacement for this lol.

Bravo Zavvi...

I just got mine in a mailer no protection. Can someone please calm my OCD and tell me if all the weird marks and the lines on the top are part of the design (i am pretty sure they are not)

Sorry, but you're correct - the Zavvi slasher has been at that.

​

If it makes you feel any better, even the version I got sent to me from Comic Con wasn't quite mint, it had a couple of paint chips plus faint scratches at the top left and that was sent in bomb-proof packaging from a HDNer to me, so I assume happened at the factory it was made in.

I did guess that,

 

[MrBMT]

I did guess that,

Sorry, that definitely sucks.

 

[Flash]

I know, as i said and hence why I was so angry at Zavvi is that it happens to me far too often.

They of course don't have anymore, so the age ol' either keep it damaged or return it and don't have it. It's got more marks I have just noticed, it's going to have to go back.

I honestly am gutted really wanted this

 

[Flash]

Thank you so much that is super kind of you to offer. But someone else has also offered me another one first but honestly thank you so much. Nice to know there are some decent people around

 

[Starling]

I would advise that you hold fire until you've received one good copy, I have a feeling this thread could turn into a Zavvi fest when these start dropping through the letter boxes...literally.

Why do they have to ship the rarest steels in those envelopes. This could be V for Vendetta all over again.

How can they claim themselves as the house of Steelbooks and provide the worst type of shipping experience known to man?

 

[Flash]

The thing is mine was clearly not damaged in transit it was badly ***** under the wrapping clearly in production or the zavvi spine slasher knew it was mine and went mental

 

[smcbeath]

My copy just arrived, came in the normal white zavvi box. I ordered mines between 4-5pm when it went live. The work experience kiddies must have clocked of at 4pm, you know the ones that were using the a4 cardboard envelopes.

 

[DecM]

I just received mine this morning in one of the white boxes so there's still hope for others too.

Received white boxes from Guernsey CI
