My Naughty Edition which I ordered from play-Asia was totally destroyed... the original sealed leaf was ripped and the box can't really stand because it's out of shape...It looks like an elephant sat on it...

I haven't received an item from play-asia which was in perfect condition...

I don´t know it yet. shopto offered me a replacement, but I want the new one first.
Wow - Just seen the pictures of your Goldeneye, I bet they sent it in nothing more than a big Jiffy bag. Shopto.net have decided that instead of using a box they just use a hugh jiffy bag. Shopto really are getting worse.

I wouldn't bother getting a replacement it will just arrive damaged again. Also bear in mind they they sell both unsealed and resealed game.

However more importantly they will sometimes supply a Euro PAL game instead of UK PAL.

I'm really surprised about this, everything time I have ordered something from them they arrived perfect. Obviously they are not 100% perfect. What was the packaging like for the damaged items, the ones I got were double walled boxed with bubble wrap inside.

So far the only real problem I've had is with Play.com and I won't ever order from them again. They posted the AC: Brotherhood Codex Edition in a crappy plastic bag and the end result was not pretty. Their customer service is the worst I have ever experienced.

As for Game, Gamestation, Amazon and HMV I've had no problems so far and the customer service from each of them has always been good. The odd missing item but nothing that wasn't sorted quickly.

I'm waiting for an order from Shop-to so I will see how that goes tomorrow.

Did I mention I really really hate Play.com?

I can't believe that Play continues to get away with using jiffy bags. Play must be such a large company, that they can say "fuck you" to the little guys and still not be held responsible.
