Gorilla bags were sold just like the other bags; in the bungie store too.


Not until about half-way through their being listed on Amazon. The gorilla page was posted as "Bag of Swag" not "Bag O' Swag" hence why me and so many other redacted our order. Then when wave 3 hit, I had just gotten home, brought up the original "Bag O' Swag" page on the bungie store, refreshed it, clicked purchase, went through the ropes and secured a bag. Didn't order from Gorilla. And not to mention Bungie IT guys had to be talking to Amazon and give them the go ahead to re-list the original bags only with the knowledge that they didn't completely sell out on the Gorilla page. They did check the gorilla sales prior to giving the go ahead to re-list the first page. I'm GUESSING that due to the mayhem that the Gorilla bags caused, some people who ordered late on the gorilla bags may not get theirs, but people who ordered from the original product page (especially on the BungieStore) will have better chances of getting theirs.

Omg -.- Did you read the first part of that?

They didn't show up until about half-way through their sale from the original page on Amazon. They weren't linked to BungieStore until soon after the seller was changed to Bungie.

Oh, sorry. My bad. I must have lost focus halfway through reading it.

I don't think they would cancel a gorilla order over an order that was placed later. That would make no sense.

That's the number of bans in this thread. Next time you want to derail something, go stand in front of a train.

I'm getting really annoyed and anxious, if anyone else has sent messages to the Bungie Store regarding orders, have you received a reply?

I've been messaging trying to get an order cancelled for a while, no reply so yesterday I sent Urk and Stosh a PM, and have also mentioned them in Twitter posts about it, but I'm yet to have a reply.

Edit: This is about cancelling an order.

What you cancelling dude? If it's due to lack of funds would you let someonelse take it over?

On topic, I'm UK and my back is expected July 18th to 5th august! I bought it 23rd June and feels like i've been waiting for a year!

Anyone UK based got a bag yet?

I'm trying to cancel an order for the MC Concept Art, since I've realised I've gone and spent too much money than I should, it's not that there's not enough funds, I just want it to be cancelled. Plus the money doesn't justify the item for me, and I regret it...sort of.

Set to ship out sometime after Friday, only about 3-4 days away.

And I'm in the UK and yet to receive my swag bag.

sorry guys, pics are taking too long to upload, my buddy is here and we're going to the gym. Be back in 1.5-2 hours and I'll put the pics up then.
You spend a lot of time in the gym :s
10 minute drive to and from (it's the University's gym), and I go with a buddy, so it takes a little longer.
Here are the pics of my On The Edge poster

That honestly makes me really nervous about my Master Chief print. Any possibility that it will have better shipping condition's than the other posters?

it should. being a smaller size and all, they should make the cardboard smaller, and the smaller it is, the less chances it has of getting bent.

Anyone else notice something fishy about the dates on my shipping confirmation page?

@mats3r 350 Oh right I was trying my luck trying to get more goodies!

Sucks being UK side though doesn't it? But looking at pics in this post the wait will be worth it! Got myself a BBBB T-shirt as well!

Anybody consider that it's going so slowly because we are all trying to access it and it's not even supposed to be public yet?

Also, if that is the case, it means it's also slowing down for the employee...he's probably going to just get up and go to Outback for a nice Bloomin Onion and we're gonna all be left sitting here wondering what the heck just happened to our mystery man

It does suck being in the UK (but then, so it would anywhere internationally), waiting ages, but I agree, will be worth it!

Well Irishfreak (who is presumably in Ireland) got his order from the 23rd yesterday, so hopefully ours will start to trickle through this week.

Sure we could come to an arrangement?...

You never know us UK folks might even get slightly more swag seeing as shipping was more than the bag itself (i'm not complaining just hoping!) but if Stosh packed 'em we are in trouble!

Hopefully this week and next week then! Will be sure to post my pics when it arrives!

Do I have to get a photobucket (or data account) to post them?

I know this isn't allowed, so I'll leave it at this, if you really want to do it, PM me and we'll talk on somewhere like Xfire (if you have it, add me psxb or xaethon) otherwise something like msn.

I'm still going to email about it being cancelled, unless you PM me that you really do want to do this. If they see one of my previous emails, and I get a reply that it's been cancelled, I'm sure you wouldn't mind though xD

And I was thinking that also, about shipping. I know for the UK, it was about...$42 was it? That added onto the $30 for the swag bag, shipping alone is more than the actual item. Would be nice if we have a better chance of getting some good, rare, valuable stuff!

Although it would be nice its highly unlikely because it would be totally unfair to those stateside

True, when I was writing it out I thought that, how unfair it would be to them.

I hate you unless I'm drunk.

My Credit Card no longer shows a pending transaction from the Amazon.com Marketplace, but my amazon account still shows my bag as 'shipping soon'.

The money has been held against my card since I ordered the bag, and now all of the sudden its not.

I hope that doesn't mean my bag was canceled.

It's done to make sure you've got the funds, but the transaction isn't completed so it gets withdrawn after about 3-7 days.

Basically, it's earmarking the money (which is what is done before a transaction goes through) but then they don't proceed with it. In this case, Amazon authorise payment when the item is actually shipped.

I know; What I'm saying is the money has been held as a pending transaction on my card since the day I ordered the bag, and now, its not listed anywhere on my CC history.

If you can't trust yourself, then don't trust anyone.

I hope bungie ships out the gorilla bags today, i'm really becoming impatient waiting over 12 days just for something to ship.
