OK, so the outer box is made of cardboard, not metal, right?
(sorry if that has been said before)
Yes. A few posts back there’s a twitter video of it. Looks much sturdier than others though.OK, so the outer box is made of cardboard, not metal, right?

It's a little questionalbe if many people managed to get a mint set. Mine had a big dent in one corner. They shipped in a sturdy box, but the box set was loose inside. Why haven't they learned after all these years? Someone should call them out on social media.
I've been lucky enough to get, or find, mint copies of all BB releases so far, but this one item may be a problem. The copies on eBay don't look mint. Hope I find a good copy at some point, somewhere.It's always been my thought that most people keep these sets despite any issues given their limited nature.
The other side of that coin are the people that return them more than once for repeated issues and cannot find one they are satisfied with.
to all GB members (cross posting here for visibility), I've just sourced special heavier boxes for these sets today. I've left enough room for bubble wrap and not a ton of room for the set to move around. The boxes should arrive later this week.
I've not yet inspected or opened all the packages I've received yet, that will take some time.
As a reminder, I do have a few extras ordered in case of damages and if everything arrived OK, I will be adding those sets in a week or so to the group buy. I'll try and announce 24 hours before I do so.
Thanks

Yes. I did not open the box set. Will likely return it.Are you saying there is a dent in the corner of the cardboard box that holds the steelbooks? Or a dent in the actual steelbook?

Thanks for the heads up and doing all you can to help them arrive safer.to all GB members (cross posting here for visibility), I've just sourced special heavier boxes for these sets today.

Where that leave those of us who want to combine shipping? Can this heavy duty box go in a larger box with other steels?
Do you want payment for shipping now (seeing as too big to combine with more steels later) (not that I want to wait anyway)
