JohnPCAE Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 (edited) One little suggestion, if I may...you might want to make it easier to get the bag out, or at least put it more toward the box opening instead of in the middle. It took me an hour to coax it out because of the sticky tape on the bag and I had to destroy the bag to avoid damaging the box. Luckily I had an identical bag to replace it.

+JasonlikesINTV Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 (edited) I haven't tried opening mine yet. Do you have any pics showing what you're referring to? Is it tape holding the bag of overlays inside the box? This means it will probably take me two hours Edited January 21, 2014 by JasonlikesINTV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnPCAE Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 I don't have any pics or the bag, but I'll do my best to describe it. Inside the box, the overlays are contained in a small ziploc-type bag. The bag is held in place to the box with a small piece of double-sided sticky tape. The tape is surprisingly strong.

Intymike Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 You can pull the whole inner box out. That's much easier than destroying the plastic bag. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnPCAE Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 I tried that, but it was in there way too tight. There was no freeing it until I got the overlays out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Intymike Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 (edited) It's a little bit tight at first. But believe me, it works. And I'm sure it's meant this way. Edited January 21, 2014 by Intymike 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ignorama Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 (edited) Got mine today and I am not satisfied. As you know the box is "sealed" with a sticker, in my opinion pretty senseless but okay. I tried to remove the sticker, but its not one of the kind you could remove without traces so I scrached the surface of my box. Asked if its possible to BUY a replacement box without this senseless sticker, its not so I got an item which is damaged now. Its my fault that its damaged, but why is that sticker so hard to remove? There are so many stickers in this world which you can remove without any trace from boxes. So I have to deal with it, but its pretty disapointing for me.

Certifiable Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 I think he wanted that type of sticker to separate original new ones from previously opened ones in a way that isn't "defeatable". I haven't met a sticker yet that could stand up to repeated applications of goo gone with a q-tip. Sometimes it takes a lot of patience but eventually they all loosen up and come off without damaging the box Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't opened mine yet, so I'm not sure if I should peel or cut the sticker. Sounds like you should have cut yours Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ignorama Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 (edited) @ BBWW The problem is the shipping. I would sell it for 85 shipped with tracking to you, but its not glossy any more on some parts of the box. If you are interessted let me know via PM. Sorry for the high price, but I paid shipping and I would have to pay again, so I make a loss with 85, which would be okay for me.

I didn't receive yet but it's very common to wait up to 4 months and I'm used to it. When they arrive, I'm going to inform you. Thank you very much, pboland.
