What's worse- a guy complaining about a box? Or people complaining that a guy is complaining about a box? For all the people saying "Dude, get over it, it's just a box", one could also say "Dudes, get over it, it's just a guy complaining about a box". 
I agree that the OP went overboard regarding the box, but so what? People rant and vent and complain about a lot of things on this forum. Some people here are acting like the OP called their mother a dirty name or insulted their favorite knife brand.
It's always funny to me when people take the time to post in a thread about how stupid they think that thread is. If you think this thread is so stupid and you want it to go away, then why did you post in it? You do realize that every time you post in a thread you bump it back to the top and help keep it alive, don't you?
I also think it's funny when people ask the mods to lock a thread, AFTER they have had their say in that thread.
And I agree that the OP was wrong to suggest that BladeHQ did something wrong. But his own posts make it perfectly clear that they didn't. So something tells me the company will survive. It's not like he accused BladeHQ of stealing his money, or false advertising, or anything that could possibly be taken seriously by anyone.
Just more comedy on Bladeforums. And there, now I have bumped this thread back to the top.

You'd be surprised what people collect these days. Frank Constanza collects TV Guides.
Very true!
My dad collects political pins (like the kind they give out to put on your shirt, hat, etc) old empty bottles from defunct companies, and full-size and hand scythes.

A 6 page thread about a guy complaining about some adhesive on a box. Okay...
Blade HQ didn't fail. You failed for worrying about some adhesive on a dang box.

OK, so YOU'RE gonna be THAT guy, huh?
I find it hilarious when someone complains about others complaining when someone else posts something complaining about something pretty stupid. Wait a minute. What were we talking about???killgar

LOL! Oh believe me, I'm not complaining. Quite the contrary, I think this is hilarious and I want to see it continue. Sometimes Bladeforums is better than a sitcom. We gotta get our laughs were we can.OK, so YOU'RE gonna be THAT guy, huh?
For the record, I don't include the part about the guys father dying as being hilarious.
They make labels (stickers) that peal away leaving no residue. If you gotta put a label on a high end product you should use a high end label. Problem solved. Packaging is very important to most all collectors, very often separating an item that is very valuable/rare due to pristine packaging from one that is not so rare or valuable. People who say "get over it" are obviously ignorant to this fact.

Lol, yes I realize this could go on forever. But honestly, it is a forum. Forums are made for discussion and complaining, although not always worthwhile, is a form of discussion. The OP posted a complaint and opened himself up to others opinions. You can't blame others for giving their opinions when prompted to do so.
To the OP, seriously dude?? It's just a box. If I would've gotten that in the mail, I probably wouldn't even have noticed, much less cared enough to post about it on BF. Although you might not like their sticker placement, I certainly wouldn't call this a Blade HQ fail!

Lol, just saw your response, so forget about my post above about a guy complaining about a guy complaining about guys complaining about a guy complaining about a box. As it turns out, you weren't complaining about guys complaining about a guy complaining about a box after all and all my complaining was for nought.LOL! Oh believe me, I'm not complaining. Quite the contrary, I think this is hilarious and I want to see it continue. Sometimes Bladeforums is better than a sitcom. We gotta get our laughs were we can.

Lol! I spent way too much time on this..., being stuck at home with the kids while the wife's out and about will drive a guy a little nuts evidently.

Complaining, observing, call it whatever but you are good at it killgar. Frankly I expected your observations on our observations on the OP's complaining quite a bit earlier in this thread. Glad to see you didn't miss this golden opportunity :thumbup:
Me !!!
That is if I couldn't get the skull sticker off any other way
I really can't understand how something like this could make you feel like throwing up.
A first world problem if I've ever heard one.
Bonus points if you can tell me the only one(without Google) from the show that said..."it's smaller on the outside".

No Google necessary. I read this entire thread to see if anyone was going to get back to that.
Ken44, I haven't even seen all her episodes but I'd have to say that she is my favorite companion. She exudes a certain kind of awesome.

Also, OP, did you try to contact them before starting this thread ?
They may swap out the box for you. I wouldn't ask them to myself, but if it's bothering you enough to start a thread I would give them a call.
That was quick. You must have seen The Snowmen episode. I still miss Amy, but Clara is growing on me. My two favorites, and Clara is the hottest ever IMO.

I liked Amy. My gf hated her because she tried sexing the Doctor and she thought that violated part of who the Doctor is... which is interesting, she looooves Scottish accents so she should have liked Amy. I haven't seen enough Clara yet but she does look pretty hot. I haven't finished up season 7 yet.
Doctor Six's female companion was uber hot, but sadly he had mostly the worst stories and no one likes him or remembers her hotness.
