Fresco - ouch

By Mercedes -
I received my brand new copy of Fresco...and when I opened it up...and to my horror...
It looked like a 2nd hand game, that was well used. 

More than 1 corner of the inside box were all torn up.

 The corners of the board were all squashed





He only has 1 leg and the corner of the box is torn.


I guess receiving a game in this condition really disheartening.  It does make me think twice about where I buy games from.  I was really excited about this game, but the condition of the game does affect my feelings for it slightly. 

I contacted the company but ......after 4 months I gave up.  I'll just write it off as being unlucky.
Maybe next year I'll have more luck with my games.

Edited to provide more information:   This was right after the March 11th Earthquake in 2011.  A lot of people had similar experiences.

On the 1st day of Christmas my Mastar gave to me...

Mastar & JBC were scrooges this year.  They gave me nothing.  Maybe it's because I give them nothing each year.  I sent this clue to my Secret Santa recipient But I did have a Master rival give a huge box of goodies for Christmas.  Technically they arrived on New Years Eve, so I guess the song title needs to change/blog title above needs to change. Then the wonderful Santa elf by the name of Awesome Joe Yamasaki, carefully wrapped up all the goodies, and bagged then, then boxed them into a huge box of exciting awesomeness.  I'm SO glad I met him at the Tokyo Game Show 2011.  He's such a great guy! After unwrapping all my goodies, the long wait began.  When would the next game day be...?  Luckily it was only a few days away.  Unlucky for me, I had all these rules I had to read up on before we played the games.  So until next time Batman   I've had a chance to play the games a few times, I'll leave you with this eye can...
