Hey guys. Just wanted to know that I order a few games from http://www.game.co.uk. I ordered the Blazeblue Limited Edition game and Rune Factory Oceans and pre-ordered Tales of Graces F limited edition.
Rune Factory came out good but the Blazeblue did not. I got this game in a bag. I thought, with common sense, they would ship something like that in a box. I am a little dissatisfied with their packaging and I probably won't order from them anymore.

Their packaging must have taken cuts since the crap they had earlier this year! >.< I've always received my stuff from them in a box. Sorry to see that...

When Final Fantasy XIII came out my collectors edition came in a similar state from Game.co.uk as well.

Game.UK really does suck 50% of the time, especially towards international customers. And their response to emails/complaints have always been unsatisfactory, clueless and unhelpful. I avoid them best I can. All this in my personal experience and some of my friends.

I've never known GAME UK to ship stuff in bags, everything I've ever gotten came in a box.

I haven't ordered anything from them in a good while, sounds like they've started cutting corners.

Mine didn't come in a bag but it came in one of those cardboard sheets that are moulded over to make a box (does that make sense? I've explained it pretty badly!) this had the effect of squashing the corners.

This is the trouble with many retailers, smaller CE's are usually sent in small jiffy bags or cardboard surrounds.

Yes, my run factory oceans came out like that. it was just the game only so it didnt do any damage.

Yeah I know what you mean, it's a way to have a standard 'box' or packaging material that will suit a number of different sizes. I have received stuff sent that way from various places and most of the time everything is well protected. Depends on how rough your postie is.
