Subject: *Official* Swag Central {{Inside look of over 50 Swag Bags!!}}

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

Many people seem to be upset with their bags, why?

I remember when these things first came out, everyone said:

"I want a bag SO BAD, I DON'T care what is inside, I just want a bag".

Now, everyone says:

"Bungie, Y U give me a horrible bag. How could you do this to a loyal Bungie fan?"

I think people should be happy they got a swag bag. :/

I will be happy with mine (more than likely), even though it will probably come with a shirt that doesn't fit, but as long as there are a few other cool things then that will be good. Plus, it was for charity so either way it's a win win.

I just checked my order status for the first time on bungie store and it doesnt show the swag bag but amazon does. It also doesnt show the bungie town print that I ordered

Since you cannot do good to all, you are to pay special attention to those who, by the accidents of time, or place, or circumstances, are brought into closer connection with you.

Does Bungie work on the weekends? I'd like them to ship today to the very least...

I'm still waiting for 2 bags from the freaking 23rd!!!

This is -blam!- disgusting! over 22 days since my order!


Komark - did you contact the Bungie Store? I imagine this to be out of the timeframe that they gave you for shipping and delivery, which raises the possibility that it was shipped to someone else.

It's my barb---err action figure and I will dress him how I please.

I'm happy with whatever comes in it. Even if it's stickers, I'll buy a frame and put it on the wall and worship it.

"Just be patient, just be patient, just be patient"

Those were the words I kept repeating to myself numerous times, but quite frankly, this is ridiculous and I'm starting to get pissed.

I ordered 2 bags on the 23rd. I got my "Shipping information was received" email on the 30th, and still, no bag. It's been 22 days since I've placed my order - that's just outrageous. I don't know of anybody from Wave 1 that still hasn't gotten their bag yet.
You do now.

I ordered mine early on the morning of the 23rd, coudln't have been but seconds after it went up, along with a Spartan Armory poster.

For the record, I also made a 2nd order of 2 additional bags (for other folks) and I've yet to receive word that that order has even shipped yet, though my first one supposedly has (according to Amazon, but not according to the US postal service).

So I have an order that has not arrived on time and even better I have conflicting information from the vendor and carrier as to whether or not the order even shipped.

I've ordered from the Bungie Store once before (Haiti shirt), and that experience went smoothly. However, after this cluster-blam!-, I can't see myself doing this ever again. I'm out nearly $200 on crap that I don't even know if it's shipped or what, and even better there has been no official word from the vendor as to what is going on when there strongly seems to be a systematic probelm with these orders.

I hate to be the cliche raging customer complaining and making demands, but this is pretty damn pathetic.

He complained... ABOUT THIS.
How the -blam!- do you complain about getting all of that in a SINGLE SWAG BAG?! RAAAAAAAAAAGE.

He's probably the type of person who will ditch Bungie completely once 343i starts running full gear with Halo.

D:<

All that... in a swag bag... and he didn't like it...

SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO JELLY!
Like I said....he needs to be slapped in the mouth and put in the box of shame.
He's probably just a kid and only a HALO fan.

If I were waiting on a bag, I'd hope for some kickass HALO stuff myself, but I wouldn't be complaining about this stuff either.
I heard he doesn't even like Halo.

Wrong mindset. You're making a $42 donation to charity. You should already feel good at that point. Then, Bungie decides to send you swag for free. Pretty sweet deal in my eyes.
I understand your point, but please don't try to make me look like some selfish bad guy.

I'm not trying to make you sound selfish, I just think some people have lost sight of what Bungie Day and the Swag Bags were about.
You seem to think that your viewpoint is the only one, or the correct one. It isn't. I not once considered that I was donating $30 to charity (if you think shipping costs are going to charity, you're naive) and getting swag for free, because that was absolutley not the nature of the transaction. I was paying $30 for a bag of swag having at least that $30 value, and Bungie was going to funnel that money (whether it was 100% of the sales revenue or just the profit on those sales, I do not know) into a charity. They could have kept the money and I'd still have made the purchase, so charity is a complete non-issue to me. For me, and I imagine for many other people, this was just an exercise in consumerism.

It's rather cheap of you to try to insult on grounds of "but it's for charity" people who rightly expect the goods that they purchased to be delivered in a reasonable time, and especially within the time frame quoted by the vendor.

I still can't believe MrM12LRV complained that he got THE ENTIRE MARATHON AND MYTH SETS, some even in boxes, PRE-WRAPPED with a bunch of other old Bungie goodies. HE -blam!- complained. I wanna slap him.
Get over it. Everyone has their tastes and maybe he doesn't like those games?

If you're so concerned maybe you should PM him an offer to purchase those items rather than threatening physical violence over the Internet.

Someone is selling a new swag bag on ebay and it is like $81.00 last I checked.

I would hope the person who sold it put some of that money back to charity again.

I live in england and I ordered from wave 1 and my bag came last Tuesday.

They won't, I can all but guarantee that. And that's no fault of theirs. They're selling a product, they're entitled to the money.

Make choices, and don't look back.

WTF

Nice to know they can get a bag across the Atlantic faster than they can send it within the continental U.S.

Outrageous.

They should put it towards one of those fancy screen protectors.

I don't understand why some round 1 bags have still not been received. I ordered a Bag O Swag on the 30th and it came in before some people got a round 1 bag. International might be understandable, but not if you live in the states. But I really wished they would have made it 1 bag per address. People bought multiples for friends or for themselves, but still, some people tried and tried and couldn't even get one.

More WTF.

People who ordered after the 23rd have theirs, but some folks from the 23rd don't.

People who shipped overseas have theirs, but some folks in the U.S. don't.

There's not even a way to logically sort out what's going on, it seems as random as the BR spread! Ridiculous.

He has "I love Halo" on his profile last time I saw... Doesn't change a thing.

My tracking information never updated from Electronic shipping info received, July 12, 2011. It went straight from that to - Your order has been delivered. Checked my front door and it was there.

Their tracking is all sorts of messed up.
