Subject: June 30 2011 how long did you wait for your bag o swag

I was on the page for 2 hours then I saw the post about gorilla bags and bought my bags without hesitation

  • 07.03.2011 4:11 PM PDT

Around 4 hours.

Since the first day, I've had the amazon page as my homescreen. On the 30th I kept waiting and waiting, I saw a mention about another place to buy a bag, I click it, order it, and then come back to the forum to see everyone talking about how big of a scam it is. I quickly cancel, and then after they are out of stock, Bungie employees say it was legit. I was extremely angry. D;

I was on for about four hours around the time when they were supposed to come out. I had to go to work, but checked back awhile later on the Amazon app and it was in stock.

I lol'd at the absurd miscommunication that occurs whenever dibbs post something. Perhaps his brain is so highly evolved that he can no longer clearly communicate with lesser life forms, even among his own species.

About four hours, like most of the people above.

I got them within minutes of going up the first time. I was working with my dad, and I had some spare time, so I just got on my phone and checked the site out of curiosity. I saw them for sale, and then called my mom and told her to buy me one.

This is why you should love your mom. She can do nice things for you!

Designated Pilot

I got on at 9 AM PDT(or 11 AM central time, where I live), stayed on it refreshing until 11 AM(1 PM my time), when I had to leave to do other things. Around 4 PM(or 6 here) I was eating dinner at a restaurant and brought my phone up to look at the time, when I saw that amazon was still up. I refreshed for the heck or it- and what do you know, they were in stock. So I quickly nabbed one from my phone, finished dinner with a smile, came home and celebrated.

  • 07.03.2011 4:45 PM PDT

About 8:00 PST to about 3:00 PST. Ugh.

Still have yet to get one.

  • 07.03.2011 4:54 PM PDT

Got on at about 7:00 AM Mountain Time. It was a long morning.

Donuts > all other food

About 5 hours.

I, being safe and not trusting everything I see, missed my perfect chance for a Gorilla Bag. But about 3 hours later some freak bags showed up on the original Bag O' Swag and I got one.

  • 07.03.2011 5:05 PM PDT

The distance between insanity and genius is measured only by success.

OTK

I need your clothes, your boots and your mobility scooter

I was on bnet and Reach all day anyway switching between the two.

I saw a post mentioning that the swag backs might go on sale soon so i opened up a shop tab, played a game on Reach, refreshed the page and it said in stock so i bought one.

I hate my fat cat. He shats on the carpet.


That's not cute. That's shatting, on the carpet.

Waited around two hours. F5ed at 10 site was down, was one of the first to order gorilla bag, thought it was a scam, cancelled, found out it was legit, and managed to order one again in time.

Too long and didn't get one. In the end it's probably better. I wanted Marathon related stuff and the posters were a better choice for me.

It would be cool if you subscribed to my youtube channel

I waited for 5 hours and got 3 =)

probally not more than 30 minutes I got lucky. I came home from work saw all the crazy stuff going on, ate dinner, got back on to see if they released yet and got one after about five minutes.

Make choices, and don't look back.

I was on from about 9 til about 4, I got lucky and refreshed the old swag bag page right when they switched it back ^_^
