    Emu
    Corrupted Garruk

    East 14 Logo
    Hotdog Fairy

    Viking
    Merch 1.0 (2013)

    Gideon
    '80s Tycho

    Blonde Lookout

    Makes sense, I mean you can't watch the 18 minute long video that Lazorz and I uploaded because you need that time to edit the Aus Pin Trading Panel, right? Right?

    Pins for trade!

    sorry @hingo, i think we stole your BM :/

    ordered with a crap ton of other stuff for those who are conspiracy theorizing including sets, single pins, and Enfu's Cute Grit (which is awesome and recommended!)

    You know how you're trading me the enfu set?

    Yeah I'd like to change what you're giving me if we can PM sent.

    :P

    My first set of DSB pulls. Ordered last Friday with the enfu set and a tshirt. I'm super happy, mostly because I just started collecting and I think it's pretty good. :)



    Thanks @Hingo!

    Edit: won't post the picture, will have to figure it out later

    @janelstarr are you trying to post via mobile or on your desktop? If mobile, it's easiest to post the picture to twitter, then copy-paste the twitter URL in the forum (since the forum auto-embeds twitter posts).

    That's pretty awesome. They could have just said "Oops, oh well." But they owned up and did something about it. Kudos, PA Merch Team

    Is it unusual to not receive a shipping confirmation email if you live in Canada? I received an order confirmation email the day I ordered my blind boxes but no shipping email. Tried emailing Customer Service and Merch about this, no response.

    I live in the U.S. and have only gotten one shipping confirmation in about 5 orders. I don't think it's a Canada thing. The email stuff has often taken a few days for me too. You are probably fine, but definitely keep an eye on it.

    So is the unmixed DSB orders done on the earlier orders?

    I am in international consolidation so my orders are in a black hold of nowhere-ness...

    If this comes to me (crosses every available appendage), then I may get the DSB illidan pin before the parcels appear...

    Here's the aftermath of my latest unboxing. I ordered six boxes. Lots of pins that I currently don't have to add to the collection I started this year at PAX Prime.

    Much better than the five castle guys in each box that I got from the Thanksgiving run.

    Very cool that some who were not lucky were rewarded anyways with a DSB merch pin. I was not fortunate in my 9 boxes and don't think I'm in that group that gets the surprise. Very happy for those that do, though! Enjoy your stocking stuffers!

    I live in the US and got 1 shipping confirmation in the last 4 orders. All 4 were with the same (cheapest) shipping option.

    If you chose the cheapest shipping option to Canada you get a shipment conformation sometimes. Even if you do get a shipment confirmation the tracking number doesn't work. The only thing it tells you is when your package crosses the border. It still takes a while to get here, I just got my blind boxes on Thursday that I had ordered back on thanksgiving. You will probably get them next week. I'd send an email if you don't have them by the 24th.

    And I just received a nice email from PA's Merchandise Customer Service. The order shipped December 12th and the tracking information got stuck between store server and fulfillment server. I've got the tracking number now, my boxes should be here Monday or Tuesday. Thanks PA! :)

    Pretty stoked to see a DSB merch pin show up with the letter today! Good people at that Penny Arcade store for sending that out, as I totally didn't expect it!

    Never got any shipping info from the Dec 12th Order, but it's here in AUS already! (Starting to wonder if I actually picked express shipping and didn't realise)



    Will have to wait until after work to open them though. Hopefully I can change my Sig (Wishful thinking, but thinking nonetheless)

    Was amazed to get the Letter and Pin from Penny Arcade in today's mail. Never thought I would get one as well, only had one box in the order from Thanksgiving's early batch. Second order of 12 boxes came a few days later. With a blind merch pin in it! So now I can trade one, at South.

    I too in Australia, have received their Dec 12th order today, and I know I did choose a faster shipping method. However, I'll let the picture speak for itself.

    They've jumped to 130.5-135.9 a liter, which makes driving a car that needs 98 suck....but it's not time for the Thunderdome just yet, that's when the beer runs out.

    I've often thought that the best strategy in a post apocalyptic world is to stock pile as much booze and as many cigarettes as you can. People will trade ANYTHING for them after a short time.

    Opened mine finally as a seperated them out to place in stockings for my sons and I.
    Not great, but I did get the DSB apology letter as well so that makes up for the lack of much here.

    Did the Canadian Merch come in a padded envelope or box?
