I got my order from B&N today of 3 penguins (ordered 3 to get free shipping). 2 were in great condition. The third was JUST A BOX WITH NO PENGUIN INSIDE! Ugggh. Some people get chases, I get empty boxes. At least it wasn't an empty chase box! That would have totally killed me, LOL.
I called them up and the very nice person on the other end offered to send a replacement right away.
But seriously...who sends out an empty box?

Empty box? Are you kidding me? Yikes. I am glad to hear you will be getting a replacement. Hopefully, the replacement isn't just another empty box. :-(

B&N is just getting ridiculous with their shipping. You can't honestly tell me they didn't notice an empty box... Just sad.

I got three packages from B&N yesterday, all from their Jersey shipping warehouse. For traveling over 5000 miles, the Pops were all fine, especially since all they do is throw the Pops in a box with a single air bag. I'm expecting one more box from the Nevada shipping warehouse so we shall see. Knock on wood!
Aloha, I'm David and I love everything Disney!!!

I can't believe they sent you an empty box. Actually I can, but still. Do they pack these boxes in their sleep?!?

Re: Barnes & Noble.com Penguins
Just got a notification that they didn't have a replacement after all so they just sent a refumd for the empty one. Net effect = no harm, no foul.

Sounds like Barnes and Nobles should be drug testing their warehouse people.
