The Stig is dead to me

For those wondering how much it will cost to ship a swagbag to wherever, I found this nifty little list on the BungieStore Amazon Page

It says the fee per shipment, and the fee per extra per lb in weight.

Note that if you add up, shipping to Europe will cost more than the swagbag itself costs. making it Half the value for double the price. (so I'm not getting one)

I won the Star. With this on Week 18.

Dude... you not going to pay $60 for something that most likely costs $300 all up?

History will be kind to me, for I intend to write it.

You have the chance of getting something very valuable, but there's also a chance you'll get nothing but t-shirts and action figures that cost no more than $30. When you have to spend so much just to get it shipped, it's not worth the gamble for a lot of people.

Bull. Most of Bungie's T-shirts are about $20 alone... if we got 3 in one Swag Bag, as well at 2-3 Action figures, the Bag would cost about $150... Give or take...

To quote Bungie.. "At worst, you'll get an honest thirty bucks worth of swag. At best, you'll get something worth so much more."

I'd be willing to bet that most of the bags contain stuff that's worth no more than $30. The lucky few will get some valuable signed stuff or zunes, but I don't think the majority of them are going to.

And it's not such a great deal if you're having to pay $60+ for this. Like I said, it's a gamble.

I know what they said, but that just means watch out for the runt on of the litter.

I'd love to buy one of these bags. However, I'm not paying the actual price for the bag just to have it shipped to me - bloody extortionate.

You're not going to get 3 shirts and 3 action figures.

You might get a shirt, an action figure, some stickers, a key ring and a book = $30 worth of stuff.

I think some people are massively overestimating what they're gonna get in the bag.

With regards to the OP, I'm in the UK, part of the reason I ordered 4 bags was because of the shipping, for one bag it was $40 shipping, but for 4 it was $70. So each extra bag I bought was bringing my price per bag down. In the end I spent $200, which is $50 a bag, not too bad I guess.
