Subject: How many Swag Bags did you buy?

I suspect llamas are secretly wizards. I <3 poptarts n' milk. I like me. Grimick is defined as: a logical parodox, the act of funnaling a potato down your throat, and a deliciously flavored muffin (with pecons and blueberries). Norway is the Swedish word for 'moron'. My sister has cancer, so i get to use handicap parking and cut small children in line at Disneyland.

"The pancake, my friend, has officially been flipped."

so sad, so few people got one. At least in this thread...

Feel free to send me messages, please be willing to wait 6-8 years for a reply.

1-7 hours if you at least tried to make it readable.

Immediately if you are Yax, Telec, or legendary.

Never if you are mythic, you guys smell funny.

None, the price is just not worth it, even less so now that all the good stuff is gone.

As an international customer, i feel sad.

Well done bungie "slow cap"

I would've loved one.

But I only noticed it once they were out of stock.

I bought 3.

It's people like you that make the world not fun and unfair.

When 13 people can take more than ten percent of the supplies you know something is wrong. -_-

I'll be keeping a keen eye on the Bungiestore next week. I missed out because I had to look after my younger brother and fix the garage roof. Life has a funny way of being a -blam!- when you try to do good deeds.

None for now but given the chance I'd love to buy at least one bag o' swag. The thing that gets me is if the proceeds go to charity, that's great but people are buying more than one to sell on ebay, etc. So idk,


I hope people don't put them on ebay. I bought 4, and there's no way I'll sell any of my swag. If I get any duplicate stuff I'll probably give it to friends, but I'm not in the swag bag buying game for financial gain, I'm in it for the love of Bungie. <3

Adding up the poll options only 114 bags are accounted for in this thread, so more people secured one than the poll suggests.

The fact of the matter is, there are only 500 of them, no matter what system of allocation they used there would be a few thousand people left disappointed.

I'll re-use the analogy I gave in a different thread:

If a girl guide came to my door selling cookies, and I buy the whole lot, have I helped charity or have I denied the people down the street the cookies they may have wanted?

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.

Zero but hopefully I will get two for my younger brother and myself...

Anyone who bought more than two is a dick, 'cause you're being greedy. Even more so if you're going to sell it on Ebay or something.


True, if you're just buying it to sell on eBay, then you're a dick.

I don't see why people want to buy multiples for themselves. To me it's just greed, they deny others of having a swag bag and they'll probably end up with duplicate stuff anyway.

It's kind of a hard subject to go into, I guess.

Looking for people to play ODST with? Join the HEV Recovery Team!

I only got one. I think I might try to get another when they show back up. If I do manage to snag another, I think I might donate it to HBO so a more dedicated fan than I am can get one.

Suck it Red!

Zip. I have better things to spend my money on, no offense Bungie.

Everytime someone sacks my groceries, I think of Loaf.

I found an old (still active) Visa gift card with $50. So I shall make an attempt at buying the bag of swag. ONE bag of swag. And if there is something I have absolutely no need for or can't use, I shall sell it back to the community for half price.

And a word of advice. DO NOT buy the ones on ebay. The person that bought them clearly emptied them out of anything "rare" and put the normal crap in them. So if you don't get one from Bungie, don't try to get one from anyone else!

P.S. Screw you people that buy more than one for YOURSELF.

I don't get this attitude. Urk said we could buy as many bags as we like, and no-one kicked off then. If people had made a fuss they'd probably have limited it to one per person. The fact that they contain random things is always going to encourage people who can afford it to get more than one.

There's literally nothing wrong with buying as many as you like. And y'all need to remember that jealousy is uglier than greed.

Haven't seen the bags available yet. Apparently they will restocking soon, so I will be keeping an eye on them so I can get one.

Wish I got one, hopefully more will pop up. Can anyone tell me if Bungie ships internationally? Thanks

They do, but they use UPS so it's expensive. Shipping for a bag to the UK is about £25.

I've been out of town unable to get access to a computer but I think it's unfair that people buy more than one. Especially in a limited quantity situation. However, that's capitalism for ya! Nothing I can do about it. I probably wont get a swag bag and I'm ok with that.
