That's troubling, Adam. I got Infinity War from a Target store, but I've used Target.com before for the occasional Disney release not stocked by Amazon.

It's good to know this happened to you, and I'll consider that before ordering from them again. I'm sorry it happened like that, but thank you for sharing.

So had a new experience: Got home today, and Infinity War was waiting for me on the front porch.

Opened the sealed package from Target, and inside the shrinkwrap had been sliced open. I opened the package itself and both the Blu-Ray and the card with the digital code had been stolen out of it. The UHD disc and the Target exclusive gallery book were still in there.

Fortunately, Target was really cool about processing the refund and letting me keep the copy with the missing pieces. As a result, I got the regular UHD release from Best Buy, and I'm just going to put the Blu-Ray copy from that in the Target exclusive packaging. Since it was only $27.99 it actually ended up saving me money -- although I'm not sure the $5 was worth the inconvenience.

In the future, I will not be making disc purchases through the Target website, since they obviously have people who steal somewhere in the supply chain. I only did it in this case because I was out of town.

THAT is crazy.

I hope the toilet cleaner arrives unscathed.

It sounds like you're whole world has been turned upside down

That would be a shitty situation, right there.

 

[Jeff Cooper]

Jeez, that's a little harsh isn't it? What do you have against him?

 

[Mike Frezon]

Today's the day!

Adam's package should arrive!

 

[Mike Frezon]

 

[Mike Frezon]

Did it??? Didn't it???

 

[Adam Lenhardt]

Unfortunately, I had my packages that shipped while I was out of town delivered to my parents' house, and I probably won't make it over there until Thursday.

I will post an update when the toilet cleaner is actually in my possession.

It's important for your toilet to be lime and rust free ...

There are many layers to this onion.

Our satisfaction remains on hold.

You mean like Shrek?

To be fair, toilet cleaner is a much less exciting item than a Blu-ray of Infinity War.

But at least the thieves didn't get this too.

They apparently couldn't handle 10x the cleaning power.

So many heartless, cold opinions I read daily here on the HTF. But I think this one takes the cake.

 

[Jake Lipson]

On the other hand, Adam, how do we know your Blu-ray was actually stolen?

Spoiler

Maybe Thanos snapped it out of existence. You did end up with 50% of the discs in the set, yes?

 

[Adam Lenhardt]

There was a distinct shortage of ash inside the case for that scenario, Jake!
