Gah. Well, if you saw the video above you know what happened. My box was completely empty. In total, spending about $20 isn’t a lot of money for me, but that’s me. If I got this as a gift for someone else it would have been an utter disappointment.

And, listen, I don’t blame 1Up Box at all for this. They lived up to their end of the bargain. They were on schedule, everything packed and shipped to me. Somehow, though, somewhere my box either got raided or was popped open by machinery and completely emptied.

I just find it absolutely depressing to have the box delivered to me with absolutely nothing in it. I’m sure the postal worker or UPS driver enjoyed delivering it.

Final thoughts

Would I pay $20 for an empty box? No. No, I would not. Ideally, this box wouldn’t be empty but it is. Hopefully, I can get in contact with 1Up Box and see if they can replace it for me.
