So if Amazon destroyed 200 Sony Bluray players while shipping them to customers .. Would you expect Sony to step up and apologize for Amazons screw up ?
If there were only 300 and the relationship was that amazon is the ONLY other person selling Sony bluray in the world besides Sony. Yes I would. Also if there was an issue with ur player down the line, you contact Sony not amazon.

Eh. I guess my view stems from the fact that it seems like it was a one-time thing, maybe an intern drymounting up or something. I mean they've shipped out a ton of prints and this is the first major issue I've heard - and they offered full and partial refunds like any company would. I can see if it was a recurring issue that was never addressed, then throwing around "arrogance," but I just don't see it. /shrug

I would. I have received 5 prints from them and only one was damaged. With the damaged one (Tron) they offered a refund or partial refund. Seems like pretty good business practice to me. Obviously, one would prefer the prints not be damaged in the first place but it seems like they are doing what they could with what they have.
Meh, I got 2 from them both damaged. I appreciate they offer full refunds or partials if you want to keep it (this is nothing special to me btw, this is the bare minimum of what they should offer) but I don't appreciate the hassle of having to contact them/send pictures/ship it back. Honestly to me it's not worth all the hassle.

Sometimes I wonder why I'm even on this site anymore.
Don't get bent out of shape. Just one persons opinion. If one persons opinion makes you not want to be a part of this community then maybe you should reevaluate why you are part of it to begin with. Just sayin....
Not sure why you felt the need to post that. It was sarcasm - how am I bent out of shape? Clearly I love this community otherwise I wouldn't be as active as I am. :roll:
You do get bent out of shape whether you want to admit it or not. Anything Mondo does you've got a rhyme or reason to it, yet are you even part of Mondo? Don't think so.

Ok .. I may see the point on the first part .. but the "issues... down the line" that would be a product quality problem and nothing to the issue at hand.

True but we were on this weird world of comparing paper to electronics. It brakes down somewhere :P

LOL >. I think we get each others points .. This is really a double edged sword for mondo though .. If they keep quite buyer like yourself will condemn them for lack of action .. If they step up and apologize for the incident they may harm relationships with SS and they are potentially accepting liability for the damaged product that SS sent out. So I am guess that "radio silence" during this attack is their idea of the best course of action for Mondo Corp. :)

Typed words on a screen rarely convey tone, but whatever.

Would that equate to the infamous red dot on the prints?

I thought the partnership between Mondo and Sideshow was somewhat forced - laid down by the production company? Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

That is a quality control issue .. and SS should have demanded reprints and destroyed the original print run.
