My
partner
and
I
both
ordered
eachother
an
Akubra
for
Christmas.
I
rang
and
asked
how
it
would
be
shipped.
Spending
$260
on
a
hat
I
wanted
to
ensure
it
would
come
protected
and
with
it's
original
shape
and
I
also
wanted
to
know
if
it
came
in
an
Akubra
branded
box.
I
was
told
it
will
come
in
a
branded
box
and
will
have
another
outer
carton.
The
hat
arrived
loose
in
a
standard
cardboard
shipping
box
with
little
to
no
packing
and
when
i
rang
to
say
it
was
missing
the
Akubra
box
and
poorly
shipped
I
was
told
the
Akubra
branded
box
will
cost
me
more
and
i
would
have
to
purchase
it
if
I
wanted
it.
After
multiple
interactions
with
different
staff
I
was
told
I
can
come
and
collect
the
box
free
of
charge.
If
i
had
have
known
this
I
wouldn't
have
paid
shipping
and
would
have
purchased
instore.
My
partner
having
known
what
I
had
gone
through
made
sure
to
order
the
hats
by
the
hundred
gift
box
to
ensure
there
was
no
issues.
when
the
hat
arrived
it
was
apparant
the
hat
didn't
fit
in
the
Hats
By
The
Hundred
box
and
had
been
deformed
by
being
forced
in
the
box.
Common
sense
would
tell
you
if
it
needed
to
be
forced
in
ring
the
customer
and
come
to
a
new
solution
to
avoid
deforming
the
product.
we
tried
to
call
to
get
this
rectified
but
recieved
no
calls
back
so
sent
an
email.
the
reply
that
we
got
back
essientially
said,
the
hat
fits
in
the
box
fix
it
with
steam
from
a
kettle.
Pretty
piss
poor
for
having
spent
$260
when
we
could
have
bought
the
same
hat
for
the
same
price
direct
through
Akubra.
After
more
arguments
with
management
the
issue
was
rectified
however
I
again
had
to
travel
into
store
to
rectify.
All
in
all
a
pretty
disapointing
outcome
for
both
orders.
I
had
to
push
to
get
a
replacment
hat
and
Akubra
box.
If
I
was
told
when
I
rang
that
it
only
came
in
a
shipping
box,
that
would
have
been
fine.
we
also
chose
the
hats
specific
to
our
orders
based
on
the
shape
they
were
when
we
tried
them
on.
Teling
someone
to
"fix
it
with
steam
from
a
kettle"
is
essientially
like
buying
a
new
car
and
finding
the
seat
is
ripped
and
being
told
by
the
dealer
to
fix
it
with
a
sewing
needle.
I
was
told
during
both
occasions
that
I
would
recieve
a
call
back
with
a
solution
in
the
next
couple
of
hours
and
both
times
i
never
did.
