Got Empty Boxed by Atomic Hobbies - 01.08.2010, 02:23 PM

Ordered my hardened chassis for my muggy from Atomic hobbies as the have them for under 74 bucks shipped but the box that came to my door was awfully light. sure as shit it was empty, no packing slip just air bags in a empty box. I called told them what i received, the guy i spoke to seemed to doubt me. then after i kept pushing, he said it was possible my order went in with someone elses. they will be sending one out tues as that is the soonest he could get the warehouse to ship it. so ill have to wait another week. its a bummer.

wouldnt they realize when actually shipping it out that it weighed nothing? thats pretty ridiculous.. im not one to try and get a discount but considering it is 100% their fault you should get at least your shipping refunded.

They have free shipping on orders over 45bucks it just sucks to expect something like a chassis and get bunked.

That sucks; I've ordered from there several times, but all small stuff, and have had no issues.

Maybe you got the optional version; you know, the super light and invisible one? Or maybe the box itself is the chassis, you just have cut it out?

I ordered an Ipod Touch from Best Buy for my wife this past Christmas and I also got an empty box. Only packing slip and bubble wrap left. I did get a replacement without issue.
It's possible that your item could have been stolen also.
