Just got my shipping notification for Fort Max and UW Computron. That's going to be a big box! Hopefully packed well enough to the withstand the couriers chucking it around.

Just got my shipping notification for Fort Max and UW Computron. That's going to be a big box! Hopefully packed well enough to the withstand the couriers chucking it around.
Got my Fort Max and Computron, they were sent in the box that previously contained two Fort Max.
Long story short Fort Max sits flush against the edges of the outside box, a precarious situation to be in if the couriers decide to have a little game of footy with the parcels.
Personally I always prefer items in a box bigger then the item with some kind of padding, be it bubble wrapping the item or styrofoam walls inside the packing box, though in this case I'm not sure it that option would have been a viable one as it is a huge item
Remember that fort max sits flush from hasbro to PC so its just as likely it can be damaged on its first transit.
Re-directed discussion to the Feedback thread ...
How long has this been happening? I'm unaware of any other online retailer (BBTS, TFSource, HLJ, Anime Export, Robotkingdom, Ehobbybaseshop, Chimungmung, Amazon) that would disclose names & location of their customers & extract of their purchase history. (I'm assuming the blackout portion is where the customer name appears).Quote:

I didn't notice this but it must be quite recently as they show who just bought at the corner of the page.
I will query their customer services now.
It's been active since at least Mp grapple. I've seen it on a few webstores before such as kogan. Not a fan but I guess it comes as a standard feature.
I don't really see the big deal. All it shows is a first name and a state. I don't think you could match that to anyone at all. They could be making it up for all we know to give off the impression that people are purchasing certain items, ie marketing ploy to try move slow moving stock.
However, I did notice this in their Privacy Policy:
How do you get my consent?
When you provide us with personal information to complete a transaction, verify your credit card, place an order, arrange for a delivery or return a purchase, we imply that you consent to our collecting it and using it for that specific reason only.
If we ask for your personal information for a secondary reason, like marketing, we will either ask you directly for your expressed consent, or provide you with an opportunity to say no.
So according to their own policy they should be asking for our consent to display this information.
I don't seem to be able to see that anyway?:confused::confused:
It occurs occasionally at the message area when you are browsing. Yes it may not be a big deal . But I already know who some of these people are and is not hard to search on Facebook to reveal more and bam I rock up as the person pretending to be that person to get a mp grapple or whatever the person bought. Certain names were unique enough to be identified so hence its a minor issue. Instead they should just say grapple was just bought 10 minutes ago and I think that's fine.Quote:

IIRC at one stage if you clicked on the pop-up it would take you to a map showing the different purchases going off around the country. Looked pretty cool but then they were giving too much away (useful stats for competitors).Quote:
