My $30 exclusives came in a bubble mailer too... all completely crushed and damaged. F*ckin' typical.

I wasn't aware that I could even choose (read as "pay") to have these shipped more safely and securely in a box instead.

Same, "sad to say."

I'm not sure if you guys are serious or not about taking the box picture above seriously...

Yeah, that's got to be a joke post. A "handling fee" for use of a box on top of a shipping charge? That's almost as ludicrous as Severin's $13 shipping for single items.

dallywhitty · 07-15-2023, 03:48 PM

I just looked on Shout's site and can confirm the handling fee is real. We can't let them get away with this.

I see the route protection for .98 cents but can't seem to find anything else

He might be referring to the $6.99 shipping fee if the order is under $50.

Jaymole · 07-15-2023, 04:01 PM

I see they’re also charging $1.99 for placing your items carefully in the box instead of throwing them in. I might Add that for my next order.

Shout! Factory is becoming Shout! Studios. Is Scream Factory becoming Scream Studios!?

Close, they’re called Scream Studio & Spa now.

No massages at the Scream Studio & Spa, but plenty of scratches.

redrunner97 · 07-16-2023, 01:46 AM

They're actually merging with Bed, Bath and Beyond. They'll now be called Scream! Factory: A division of Bed, Bath and Shout! Studios Cola™ - a ScratchCorp Company.

Is it a joke? Consider me joked...

Rayjg · 07-16-2023, 03:35 AM

More frightening than the scratches is you know they paid some company a few grand to come up with Studios. Other names considered were Pout Factory, Wax and Buff Studios and The Smash and Scratch Go-****-Yourself Collection.

Just wanted to bring this to everyone's attention, posted over in the Psycho II thread:

The player identifies it as a BD disc, but it's blank, as it seems. It doesn't load, nothing happens. I tried it in 2 different players.

Anyone else here had this problem with this possible bad pressing?
