Packaging

Also, if I can mention the import site Renchi.com. I've only ordered -one- item from them so far, but it arrived in a thin cardboard box and was severely beaten up.

Good old forwarding agents at it again, they are are simple the worst type of service and charge so much for so little.

I totally sympathise! I was not happy when I received mine, as every single corner was dented.

Here's an unpacking video I made:

Belive me, I have never been so disappointed in my life! However, there is a happy ending as I managed to resell it on eBay for twice the price and purchased two more, which arrived packaged in a box nice and mint!

Did I mention I really really hate Play.com?

Did I mention I hate them even more!

1) Bought a brand new X360 from them. It arrived, used, didn't even work when I plugged it in. Sent back for replacement, conveniently lost in transit

2) Damaged Assassin's Creed Codex Edition

3) Every SteelBook I order from them arrives either dented or with loose discs

4) And this one has really got me annoyed - Sold an item via PlayTrade, transferred the money to my bank account, but a month later i've still not seen it appear. It's evaporated, and PLAY don't seem to know where it's gone!

5) Their customer services are F'ing useless! Clueless, unhelpful, and can't even understand them half the time! I hate having to ring them up, but unfortunately I have to for almost every thing I order from them!

If it wasn't for the fact that they have exclusives I can't get elsewhere, I wouldn't bother with them at all! I hate them so much, especially when there are retailers who offer a much better service!


HMV and GAME aren't perfect by a long way, but at least their returns policies are amongst the best, and you can actually get somewhere with their customer services!

Ok, I send back my sqeezed Goldeneye CE to ShopTo.net today.

The returncosts will be refunded on my Shopaccount (9,05€). We´ll see in which condition my replaced Goldeneye arrives.

[gurpswoo1]

Good news, was is factory sealed with the two clear stickers on the top and base.

[giGant]

Jep, thats right.

But the packaging-guys are just awesome. The took a big Jiffy bag again, but with the flake packaging which I´ve used for the return-shipment this time!

Good news, man. I'm glad to hear that. It took 'em long enough, but oh well, everything is good now.
