Just got mine. It was not boxed. They put the packing slip and address sticker right on the top where the slipcover did not provide any protection. I peeled it off as carefully as I could, but it peeled most of the top coat of paint off on the top of the box. For good measure, UPS decided to leave the game on my porch. We got 3 inches of snow plus sleet and freezing rain. By the time I got home, the cardboard box the game was housed in was mush. Needless to say, I called to complain to best buy. OOS and could not order me a replacement so they gave me $5 credit. Still kinda upset, but learned never to have them ship a CE/LE to my house again. Instead, I'll just pick it up in store from now on.
