I had him ship to Erik to save me a few bucks.

Erik leaves a message along the lines of "Boy are you gunna be pissed..."

Sends me these photos...

I cried.

Haven't heard back from seller yet. I'll keep everyone posted.

    Bought a tear to my eye too Batty image
  • TheFrisbeeTheFrisbee
    Wow... and the delivery dude just went ahead and brought it to the door anyway :-(



    That it sad!
  • NewUser123456789NewUser123456789
    Batty, sorry to see what happened to your new box...



    That is horrible..
  • Little SamsonLittle Samson
    That's terrible.  I assume they did that to the box during a customs check?
  • NewUser123456789NewUser123456789
    I don't think so, Batty had it shipped to Erik so it wouldn't have to go thru customs..
  • BattymoBattymo
    Yeah, I don't think customs touched it. Erik said it was left on his door step in that condition.
  • Little SamsonLittle Samson
    Oh, I see.  Hopefully there's something that can be done with UPS insurance...
  • NationalGameDepotNationalGameDepot
    All UPS packages are cover for 100 regardless. The sender will just need to file a claim and erik will probably have to as well. It is a pain in the arse though. UPS is much harder on packages than USPS is, but I totally understand how stuff like that happens. Surprised it doesn't happen more to be honest.

    At least the game wasn't MIA, better KIA than MIA I suppose, holy cow.  The price doesn't get much better than that also on the bright side
  • UncleTuskUncleTusk
    That sucks man. but at least you could probably sell the cart and get your money back. or very close.
  • TNTN
    Ouch, looks like the Turtles arch nemisis Shredder got ahold of that box. I hate to see that happen to anyone. Hope you can get a resolution soon.
  • NationalGameDepotNationalGameDepot
    That was the corniest joke I have heard in a while but I busted out laughing. Well done TN. image

    Man, that SUPER sucks. Hopefully the seller will help you out, but it really doesn't look like he could have done anything to prevent it. Weak.
  • KHAN GamesKHAN Games
    Wow, I just verbally blurted out "holy shit" when I saw that. It takes a lot for me to actually emote. That is awful man. Sorry. image

    Yeah he can switch out the back and goo gone some sticker residue on the label and have a minty cart. But I still can't understand how both the front and the back of the box got ripped up? It was face up to the rip so rips on the front make sense but for the back to be screwed like this I don't understand? Also seller wasn't honest about the fact that the back of the box had marker and stickers on it either. But I already told BattymoBaconStealer that I would do anything I can to help him fix this with seller.

    P.S.  The reason I have to think UPS screwed this up was because they left it on my doorstep face down, label side (damaged side) down.  They never do that, pretty shitty if you ask me.

    Anything you say? *wink*



    Still haven't heard from seller yet...

    I used to work for UPS when I was 18 years old.  I am ashamed to admit it, but I did way worse than that to ALOT of boxes.  Me, and almost everyone I worked with treated boxes like shit.  The way the packages come down the line, into the back of the trailer, so fast, shit just gets backed up.  Then your just kicking boxes like soccer balls, smashing boxes to fit into place, becasue they trained you to build perfect "walls" of boxes when loading, almost like tetris!  When I got pissed, which was often, I would take my anger out on the boxes.  When I got hungry, I would find a box Hershey or something, and open it and eat the candy bars.  I was young and disrespectful then, I don't condone that behaviour now, but I can totally understand how your box ended up like that.  After having worked at UPS, I would NEVER ship anything there.

    I think Erik did it.....LOL

    And if you pay to have it shipped to Erik and then pay him to ship it to you,How does that save money?

  • Mr. GimmickMr. Gimmick

    Ah man, painful too see a box all torn like that ... brings tears to my eyes image

  • jimpoleshukjimpoleshuk
    I worked in a Fedex Center and it was the same way ( I didn't crush peoples boxes and stuff tho) Very hard on the packages. Wasn't uncommon to see stuff that had opened up. 
  • jimpoleshukjimpoleshuk
    I'd still buy that box image

  • Jumpman Jr.Jumpman Jr.
    Wow thats pretty bad. I'd shit myself if I opened a package like that.
  • QuackQuack
    That's pretty shitty, sorry to hear Batty.
  • skankinmackskankinmack
    that does suck balls, but look on the bright side, at least it wasn't a Myriad or SE box, something very hard to replace and with very limited numbers. Tournament fighters is relatively easy to replace, still is shitty that it happened though.

    I think I'm sending all of my packages by  carrier pigeon and horse back from now on...

    omg i would be raising hell. sorry man i have had a box come in looking like it got ran over by the ups truck before it does suck.
  • BattymoBattymo
    Yay! Finally got my refund today! UPS took forever!
  • xARSEFACExxARSEFACEx
    Holy crap. I didn't know anyone ever actually got refunds. Nice.
  • TFGZTFGZ
    If you go through the long headache process you 'can' get refunds. With USPS it's more like pulling teeth. Glad you compensated Batty.
