When we received the box the other day and after we went through everything we both agreed on one major observation. Major to us at least, and that was the quality of the actual box. Normally when I get items like this, whether board game, card game or ttrpg I find that the box quality tends to be good. For something that was sold as the Munchkin Big Box and was meant to store my cards, including cards I already had, this box (container) was a real let down. It's rather flimsy and actually the lower left corner was already slightly scrunched. (bad packers this time around) I went and checked my other boxes from SJG and they were much more sturdier, like for example Dungeon Fantasy Rpg (I've two complete sets of that material). Anyhow, that was a real let down, it's obvious that for storage for all my cards that his box will quickly fall apart with usage. This is unacceptable and makes me want to not back further boxes of this nature to be honest. It's just one of those things that you add to your list of potential reasons "not to" back another project. The contracted shippers did a really subpar job for this one, the box could move a bit and the outer shipping box was flimsy as well. I'm a super backer of games and I'll note that companies like Pinnacle (Savage Worlds etc ttrpgs), Goodman Games and Free League Publishing all do really well with packaging. Basically I use those three as the standard when looking at my boxes and how they come to me. I considered SJG in the same league but in recent years they've dropped off the list. Older projects had much better shipping, packaging etc. Just wanted to give that feedback to SJG.
