    what a PR disaster for matter yet again.
    honestly how difficult is it to stick aload of crap in a box, and send it out?
    thats the royal mail for you! they cant do anything they are supposed to do on time.
    ive had the email, and ive had my mail, didnt arrive today. no im not obsessed by ' matter' and waiting by the door for the postman, but matter them selves have been building the hype, sending out emails telling us its on its way, and then the day its supposed to be delived another email to says its delayed yet again. If i was enolved in any of this marketing i would want to see people dragged over the coals. im so far not impressed with anything matter has done, and i probably wont be encouraged to buy anything from the items sent, when they do get here.


    if it is a load of crap why apply for it?

    i got mine today too, i agree, but the origial source stuff is ok!!
  • I have never heard people moan about, a box sooo much.
    Its a freebie, if you get it you get it, be grateful and enjoy it.and if you dont, well never mind you never had it in the first place to miss it.

    Just think people need to realise your not paying for it, and these companys prob get thousands of requests, and as its their money and time. i suppose it is up to them what they do.

    think some of you need to not take it soooo seriously, after all freebie hunting ment to be fun, and half the fun, is getting surprised when something turns up!!:j :j :j :j

    Absolutely, it's free - when its so hard to get freebies these days we should be thankful for what we can get. It is after all costing the companies who partake in this campaign quite a bit of money both in producing the extra stuff and staffing, because no doubt they'll have to employ extra people to pack all these boxes, and it isn't costing us anything.

    Chill people!
    If I have been of any assistance, or my information is useful, please press the "Thanks" button :)

    Would be interesting to know how many people have/haven't got their box today (who were signed up in time and expecting it). There were quite a few people getting excited about it, so I hope they got theirs today.

    I think the problem is that some people went a bit overboard with speculation/excitement, so there's been all this build up and now dissapointment because it doesn't seem to be as good as the last matterbox & is delayed for some. Best solution is not to get excited over freebies, just wait until they arrive and appreciate it if you get anything at all.
