Damaged Goods.

So, I finally received my rulebook today.  Still have not gotten a reply as to why it was late, but that's beside everything.  I was really glad when I heard that it arrived, we were late getting home from out of town and only had time to grab our stuff before disc golf but I grabbed it for the ride over.  When I picked it up I noticed a glaring dent on the lowest edge, so I took a picture before I even opened the wrapper.  There are lots of dents around the edges, and the box was undamaged.  I don't know if they were playing catch with it or what...


There were some on the back too...


If it was not for the folded corner and that big dent I probably would not be complaining.  So not only did I get it late, but it's damaged too.  We'll see what GW has to say when I get a reply.

So far the book is great though, they do a good job of explaining everything, much better than in the past, and everything seems very clearly worded.  The full color pages are nice and the new art was great to see.  Cannot wait to play a few games!

    1. Doesn't comfort me at all. Kinda makes me more sad that people still have not had their books shipped. You will enjoy it once it arrives.

  2. I pre-ordered on the 23rd at 7am EST. Friday the 29th I checked the status and it hadn't shipped. I wasn't going to wait so I called customer service and they wouldn't let me cancel the order. So I bought a book and the shop and I'll sell my copy to a friend, but I was really pissed also.

    As far as I'm concerned, I'll have to drive out to get new releases from MG rather than ordering online every again.

    1. Yeah, if anything I will pre-order from the hobby shop. Kevin is going to be getting his copy tomorrow. A week late...
      Still no reply from GW on my emails.

  3. Same here. Mine won't be here until July 9th and I pre-ordered the thing. Honestly,tThis was the last straw for me with the online crap. GW used to be so good in that department - second to none really - and now they just fail on every damn order. I'll just hit the store from now on and won't even bother with splash releases or on-line.
