you know? I really don't like you guys that are selling bags. I don't know if you like Bungie, I don't know if you already have another one, I don't care. All you did was make one less person able to get the bag for what it actually sold for. And frankly, that makes you aholes. Especially if you dig through the bag in advance and take out anything worth anything.
I don't care about bag o swags. Just sayin.

And it is interesting to see all the cool stuff you guys are getting. You guys that aren't selling it.


I agree with you 100%. I was blessed to get a bag and I am going to cherish everything I got in it. These people who are posting bags on ebay are not TRUE fans. I grew up with Halo and love the franchise and Bungie to death. To me this event was really something special between Bungie and its fans. People who are taking their bags and selling them on ebay are just pathetic, non-fans. End of story.


Why do you people keep saying crap like this? they bagged up a bunch of junk and sold it to us and SOME of you morons are kissing their butts for it! I got a game in Japanese, a shirt that doesn't fit and 2 $5 toys that could be bought at Walmart, so quit acting like we all got some long lost treasure from Bungie as most of us got crap!

In a time long past, the armies of the dark came again to the lands of men. Their leaders became known as the fallen lords, and their terrible sorcery was without equal in the west.
In 30 years they reduced the civilized nations into carrion and ash. Until the free city of Madrigal alone defined them. An army gathered there, and a desperate battle was joined against the fallen
Heros were born in the fire and bloodshed of the wars which followed and their names and deeds will never be forgotten

I would be happy to even get a bag, it was all a treasure to me.

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

To anyone in the UK who has already received the swag bag, did you have to pay VAT and customs duty? Along with paying Royal Mail/Parcel Force to deliver?

If so, how much?

Just got mine in :D

But I'm away, so I wont be able to open It... for two weeks.

*sigh*


Just got in to my destination.

Oh, did the the fact that some people got extra bags get settled out yet?


...Seriously?

Somone was able to snag a bag, and is expecting one to come in, and it gets sent to somone else, then THEY sell it?

*sigh*

People are selling extra bags they got sent by mistake? Really?

Surely that is against the law, in the UK it would be anyway, since...well you know. What is being done.

I got a lot of the same stuff you got, and I am more than happy. People love it because it's owning a part of Bungie's legacy. People that go into it with your mindset of getting something valuable to sell have the wrong idea. Be thankful that you even got a bag. I chose to buy the bag o' swag not because of the possibility of getting as you call it "long lost treasure", but to help Bungie's charity and get a chance to own some unique items which are special to the fans. People with your mindset don't understand what Halo and Bungie means to some fans, and will therefore never have a rewarding experience when you open your bag. This is something Bungie did FOR its fans. You knew what you were buying. Wise up.

I am sad that you got a bag and not someone who really wanted one for the right reasons.

See this is what I am talking about! I spent hours refreshing and waited a solid month, and my "unique and special part of Bungie" is a "bag o crap" full of stuff nobody wants and that they couldn't sell, I mean how many halo fans need a 4X shirt? Or how about a Japanese Halo for the PC? OH, I know!! A sticker that says "disk one" what a joke these things are! When you think about MOST of the things in these bags it makes sense, I mean, if I was going to buy a Halo toy/action figure what would I buy? I probably would not buy a ghost or a chopper, I would buy a character of some sort, right? which is why so many of us got these, because its junk they had left over. I would like to add one more thing, I didn't buy this bag so i could sell it and make a profit, I spent countless hours sitting in front of the computer waiting to buy one of these so I could get something cool for my collection, but instead got a random assortment of Bungie s leftover junk.

The thing I liked most about the halo games is that bungie seemed to care about the people playing the games and they put a lot into it long after the games release, most others do not, BUT, when it comes to selling things Bungie sucks!

I am sure to upset some of you girls, I am sorry, I just wanted to vent a little....

Selling bags is great, it means they are available for those who really want one.

It's still a huge rip-off.

250$ for a bag? lol (But yeah, people might say that the things inside the bag are actually worth a lot more).

Not unless you have a wave one bag or get very lucky. The chance you have is so small it shoudn't be considered.

Look at the facts

There's only 50 in the world. Then you've gotta subtract how many bungie kept/lost. So I'd say 30-45 out of 1000 bags. The only bags we've seen that contained the pens are wave 1 bags. There hasn't been any lately. Face it you have a low chance to recieve one.
