Well, I tried. I thought for a moment then that I'd get past the quantity page, but alas, I have endured this to no avail. Perhaps the other swag to be released later will have equal... swagger.

It's 1:14am by my watch, and I have a driving lesson in six hours. Good night, and good luck.

Meanwhile Urk can you please shut down the ability to add the Swag Bag to the cart. Or at least get someone to shut it down.


We've been trying to shut it down for a while now. :\


Please keep updating the twitter too before its too late :(

Will the dandruff be signed?

Roses are red
Violets are blue
I love Yvonne
And so should you

What's the whole deal with the people who ordered from Gorilla then? Have their orders went through properly?

5 out of 6 pediatricians can't tell the difference between a resident vagabond and a local hobo.

So urk, can you confirm that if there are any bags left, that they won't be sold today? I think that info would save us alot of angsty website checking, for now anyways.

  • 06.30.2011 5:17 PM PDT

Wow I have had a Swag Bag in my cart for a while now and I get to the review my order and it tells me there is no more?

  • 06.30.2011 5:17 PM PDT

Hi.

Do you mind me asking why people weren't informed that the bags were being sold from a weird source beforehand?

I got a swag bag in the end, but still, that was kind of..

Don't scare those who were lucky enough to order one. >.<

I'm sure they can throw something together if that happens


I don't know, I mean there has to be a set number limit of purchases on Amazon pages so that an automated system can determine when the number of items have been sold out. How do you think we got that error message earlier with the gorilla bags that they had been sold out, then when people cancelled, all the sudden bags opened up.

I'm sure that they're just checking to see the system didn't screw up and allow too many or too little orders go through.

Even if there were more orders than bags, I don't doubt Bungie could scrounge up some more neat stuff for the unexpected buyers and get about a hundred or less bags made.


True, but if we sense something wrong or find out the system somehow messed up, A LOT of people are going to be upset/pissed. D:

Me, well I'll be upset because my debit card has already been charged for the order tonight (my bank notified me). I know it's going to charity and all, but I wanna make sure my money and online order are complying. DX


Will you get an alert if Amazon tries to charge your card and the payment doesn't go through? Just as I bought the bag and got my confirmation, I moved money over to my account that I used to buy the bag with. Although my bank site said that transactions won't be accessible till the next day yet my account showed that the available balance was enough for the bag. Just concerned because if my bank screwed up (which wouldn't be the first time) I just wanna make sure I still have secured my bag lol.


I'm not sure if I would get an alert. Is there a way to set that up or look for it on Amazon's website? Usually when my bank notifies me of a purchase, it's pretty much done deal, so yeah......I need the extra insurance I'm getting my bag in mid July. So in essence, I'm with ya there. >____>

Gorilla bag purchasers are just fine, as said on the bungie twitter feed. Don't worry :)

Dude, once you had it in your cart you should've checked out immediately.

May 11 will be known as Halo 2 Day for me from now on.

Well Ive been in the Navy since June 25, 2009 and its a fun job right now.

To baked bean the orders from gorilla should have properly went through... Bungie said that they will check to make sure that they all did go through smoothly...

  • 06.30.2011 5:18 PM PDT

Make choices, and don't look back.

Glad to hear that more items are to come ^_^ I will buy whatever I can afford, and I already have a couple of things on the way.

GET!

So, I haven't been able to find a proper answer to this question:

If I got an order conformation in my email from Bungie and my account was charged by Amazon, then does that mean I am guaranteed the 1 bag that I ordered? That is really all I want to know.

  • 06.30.2011 5:20 PM PDT

I think I was one of the last to buy, right after all the replies from the denied people started showing up

That's what I'm trying to find out, thank you lol!

Well that's a relief. I've been so confused by this whole thing. Well, I guess everyone has.

Props to Bungie for trying to sort this whole ordeal out as quickly as they have been.

Well, I didn't get swag, but I did pass my first year of University. Today has been worth it. Good night everyone, and good luck to those still hoping for a bag.

1:22AM here, been beside my laptop since 6PM (10AM PST) trying my damndest to get a precious Bag O' Swag to no avail (just wouldn't work for little ole me despite all 3 opportunities there seemed to have been)! Still got the 'I need a weapon' poster so it wasn't a total waste of an evening and on the bright side I saved some money!

Well done to all those that got one, very jelly!

  • 06.30.2011 5:23 PM PDT

Might be a good idea for someone to put up a stickied topic stating "Swag Bags are NOT in stock" and explain the status. The replies in here get buried pretty quickly, and there's a lot of people popping in and asking about why they can't order.

Just wondering: are there still other 20th anniversary items yet to be revealed to us?


Yup.

I'll keep everybody in the loop as best I can. Thanks for all the patience. We knew people would dig the Swag Bags and wanted to make them a great value, but we really didn't anticipate this kind of overwhelming response. They're limited because many of them are a mix of new items, historical swag, and signed stuff. We're boxing them all right here in the studio (so some will probably include Bungie dandruff, too!).


Urk, I understand you are busy, but please respond if you can.
I ordered a bag from the Gorilla seller almost right away, and have yet to recieve a confirmation email. Is my order good?

P.S. If anyone cancels an order, can I order an extra for my friend? (At work, should be home soon though) Thanks! :)
