The first time I saw the Chest, I questioned its origin!? It didn't look like it related to the franchise for me and there was no detailed information about it. If it was indeed exclusively made and customized for the "charity", I would have expected a little behind the scene of the reasoning for such a Chest box.

Don't feel bad, feel happy that the money you submitted has gone to help kids with illness

Plus now you can purchase an unmarked Chest box to put all your AC items in and keep the "original" Chest box safe from possible damage





Was only joking mate, not blaming you for this at all. I blame Ubisoft. Yes, I am happy that the money went to charity, but that's not the point really. Those who purchased these spent a lot of money on them. I'm sure if you or anyone else had bought one you'd also feel burned by this. I still like the set, just annoyed and wish I had known about this earlier.

Anyway, for those interested in buying a chest, I don't think its the small one. The AC one is fairly large and weighs around 7.5 - 8kg. I priced up postage to several countries as I've had a few offers to sell, and the cheapest available postage to the UK is $104 for sea mail with no tracking or insurance. Air mail is $213, also with no tracking, and express post is $220 and has tracking.
