I don't know what the law on this is like in the States, but in the UK you don't have a legal right to keep things that were sent to you in error.

And especially considering it's for charity you should probably fire Bungie an email about returning the stuff you received. I totally understand that it's their mistake and you shouldn't be inconvenienced by it, but y'know it's a bit of a dick-move if you keep a bag that someone else is waiting for.

I agree. It would be nice to let them know about the mishap and they may reimburse the person who didn't receive one.

Something similar just happened to me. I ordered two Burn Blue shirts, I got them in the mail but the shipping status was never updated. Today, I got two more shirts in the mail with no extra charge to my account.

I'm very confused, I ordered one swag bag when it was first released. I received my swag bag about 5 days ago, and yesterday morning I received another swag bag. I checked my bank account and I was only charged with one swag bag. Also, both swag bags contained the same shipping number, so I think Bungie accidentally printed two. I'm not going to take a picture, you can believe me if you want.


You guys should ship them back, somone else is probably missing their swag bags and shirts right now :/

This complicates the limited number of Swag Bags even more...

Haha, it's funny, because we were all rushing Bungie to get our stuff shipped, and now it seems like because we rushed them, they're messing up.

Maybe they would even reward you with something you would never even imagine getting. Just a thought.

That would be completely lame...


Also, people that got more than what they paid for, do all receipts say your name? A poster pack I ordered came in for me yesterday, but the receipt inside the packaging was for someone else, anyone else have something like this?

Make choices, and don't look back.

I feel really bad for those who bought a swag bag or poster and will not receive it because someone was shipped more than the one that they paid for.

Still waiting on 2 swag bags and 2 of the $70 posters I ordered from the 23rd.

I'm assuming my first shirts had the correct receipt info, and this second shipment does as well.

The only diffrence in my orders were the contents of the bags and the fact that the second bag was not numbered.

Well the numbers have nothing to do with anything, as we found out a little while ago. So that's not a big deal.

Were the receipts correct?

Lol, I've had to spend three different shipping fees on the stuff I bought.

  • 07.09.2011 12:15 PM PDT

Same with me, it would have been nice to buy and ship everything at once. At least the money went to charity.

Same here with the shipping costs. I really hope that my swag bag will arrive soon...

No, the shipping fees go to USPS.

I have like 10 separate orders...

Great, I have still not received my bag yet. Bungie probably gave mine away.
This sounds terrible. How could Bungie screw this up so bad? I realize the Gorilla bags and stuff weren't Bungie's faults, but this totally is. I think I heard that Stosh is the one in charge of shipping, if so, that explains everything...

I'm still waiting on a few items myself from the 23rd.

Just got pictures of my "Master Chief the Armory" print. As I said, it was damaged in shipment, I included a picture of how bad the damage is. Hopefully I will get a refund, because this really isn't displayable :(.

"The Armory print"


Disappointing as it is, you'd really want them to refund charity money? Doesn't necessarily seem like your heart was in the right place on that one but I can certainly understand the frustration.



No, the money would come out of there pocket. It was there fault with the shipping, the packing was terrible!! Hardly any protection at all. They could have marked DO NOT BEND all over the package. They didn't.

I'd tend to agree, I know it's for charity, but you spent $70 on a poster, so you kinda want it to be in perfect condition when you get it.

The swag bag stuff is a bit different, firstly because it's really cheap, and secondly because they've literally walked around the studio shoving stuff in a sack so you can understand why stuff might get damaged.

You paid $70+shipping for a limited edition print and I think it's reasonable fo you to expect it to arrive in perfect condition.

When you said damaged poster, I thought you meant it was torn up and stuff, not just bent.

But still, UPS, Y U NO PACKAGE IT SAFELY AND UNFOLDED?!

USPS, not UPS, HUGE DIFFERENCE.

Also, it's not USPS's fault. Bungie chooses the packaging they want to send the stuff in All USPS does is ship and deliver. And the packaging never said handle with care.

And through experience with several shipping companies, USPS is usually one of the better ones (albeit a horrible tracking service)
