If MauAnouk2012 is being added (and don’t tell him), I’m sure some unique BurgerTime items would be appreciated. LoL. 

Absolutely!!!

I won’t tell him and I ask all participants to do not grab the BurgerTime items from the lootbox!!!🙏🙏🙏

Hi all,

So what's the purpose of this box exactly? Do you just keep filling it with items when it arrives at your door? I'd prefer to have PAL Inty games since my console is a PAL unit.

 

Many thanks,

This is just a way to move spare items throughout the community. Some people will have duplicates of items that other people have none of

 

Its a surprise bag in a box.

Hey when it comes to me it's probably going to be mailed out the first week of November if I get it sometime in October.  

 

I've got something in mind but it's not in stock yet.  

 

Hopefully much sooner than that.

I didn’t receive any tracking info when it was sent but it has not arrived yet. I’m pretty much living outside by my mailbox harassing the mailman daily but still nothing. I’m thinking customs gave it a good look over causing the delay.

Don't worry. I'm sure it's just hung up.

Interesting coincidence...

I sent a large package to Morpheus a month ago. After 2 weeks of him not receiving it, we started making phone calls. Customs in Italy said they never received it. USPS said it was flown to Milan.. no longer their problem. We kept up asking for an investigation... stayed on them. Low & behold, it arrived at his house over a month after it should have been delivered! Shipping sucks anymore. Noone seems to care.

I'm just glad he received it. Lots of money in games would have been lost.

I told him to tell the story on AA... not sure if he will.

I sent a large package Priority to Morpheus a month ago. Very expensive. After 2 weeks of him not receiving it, we started making phone calls. Customs in Italy said they never received it. USPS said it was flown to Milan.. no longer their problem. We kept up asking for an investigation... stayed on them. Low & behold, it arrived at his house over a month after it should have been delivered! Shipping sucks anymore. Noone seems to care.

I'm just glad he received it. Lots of money in games would have been lost, and a couple super-rare games.

I told him to tell the story on AA... not sure if he will.

Let’s hear it @Morpheus

Yes my friend…

What Roger wrote is true…

 

You have to know that while you were at PRGE having fun with your friends, relaxing, drinking good beers, grabbing amazing homebrews around (including mines! thanks!!!🙏🙏🙏) someone on the other side of the ocean was living a nightmare, suffering every single minute, couldn’t sleep any more, lost any hope in the life and, even worse, in collecting Intellivision!!!😭😭😭

 

And that man was me!!!

 

You might remember that I gabbed a cute Super Cobra French Canadian boxed in August, my Precious!!!

 

It happens that my Precious passed by Roger’s house to join some other 30 ultra rare games (original 125 and homebrews) so as to have some company during the long journey to Torino.

 

Given the content of that box I asked Roger to go with Priority Air Mail, usually it takes 4 to 5 working days max…

 

Box left on September 3rd, did reach Milano (according to USPS traking system) on September 5th and then didn’t move any more…

 

After a week of no sign I was still jocking and savouring that moment when you open your box at home, in your office, alone and you place one by one your games into your collection.

The spot was already prepared for my Precious!!!

 

After two weeks, I did start to worry a bit and decided to call Poste Italiane in order to be reassured that it was all fine.

Well, they told me that the box did never arrive in Milano, that it was still in the USA and that hence they couldn’t do anything about it.

I asked Roger to check with USPS: they told him that the box was in Milano and that hence they couldn’t do anything else.

 

Same answers on both sides the whole month. We did open the ticket, sent pictures, filled forms. Same answer from both sides: ping pong, with my Precious!!!😱😱😱😱

 

I got persuaded that my box got lost, destroyed somewhere, stolen by someone. My Precious lost, gone, without knowing what did happen to him!!!😭😭😭

 

The days kept passing, fall arrived, with rain, fog and cold.

Birds migrated, trees lost their leaves, my land turtles went into hibernation.

And me, I was just wandering alone through the city, sad, without my Precious (and other 30 ultrarare games).

 

Then, suddendly, unexpectedly, out of the blue, last week I receive a message from Poste Italiane.

My box completed custom clearance!

And the day after it was in my office, waiting for me, in perfect conditions.

I did open it, slowly, taking my time, mobile off, alone, savouring every single second of that ritual.


And my Precious was there, waiting for me!!!

And I got so happy that I saw the Spiker and grabbed it right away!!!🤣🤣🤣😎😎😎🤠🤠🤠

LMAO....

But so close to the truth. I'm happy everything worked out Morpheus. It just shows.. never give up hope!  Great story.

 

And you touched on another great point.

Each year when everyone makes the Trek to PRGE and leave us to wonder, they don't realize that while they are preoccupied with the convention, it's prime time for us to grab up some good stuff !

No Sorry. I always keep them. I guess I hid it too good. I wonder if I visit UPS if they still have it. I will try that.

A big heavy box from Utah???

I'm sure it's hung up in Customs being checked for drugs or Werther's Originals.

You clearly told me it was sent ups and I kept checking the post office as if it was sent USPS, I’m pretty sure there is a UPS depot in town I can check. I’ll keep you updated. 😋
