Futurama vol 3-empty box!
Just opened my copy of Futurama vol 3 last night to find four pristine, completely empty thinpacks. Can't say that I've ever heard of this happening, and I'm really not looking forward to tring to exchange it. Has anyone else had this problem?

Yikes! You're near me! 
Luckily I ordered mine from Amazon...I may yet be safe (it arrives on Monday).

Actually, the set was a gift, and was bought at a Toronto Blockbuster location. Went back in today, and found out that the other copy the store had was also empty. Might be something to keep an eye out for...

Mine had the discs in it, but the little clear part of the outer case is basically coming off in the inside, to the point where you cannot fit the inner tray back in.  |

Thank God I didn't buy mine at Blockbuster! Got mine at Zellers with all discs accounted for. I've never heard of something like that happening before.....someone was sleeping on the job in the packaging department.

That's definitely a new one on me, but I'm happy to have gotten my set completely with no defects.
4 empty cases...wow

First set I got had two disc three's and no disc one. Seems like Fox is having issues with thinpack releases-I recall Firefly having issues as well.

My first thought was shrinkwrap scam. You know the kinda of new age version of shoplifting? But we talking dvds here that have tons of labels and stickers on other side. You really have to be pro reshrinking that! hmm. very odd
