Important Update RE: The August Metalhead Box

8/25/2017

The key to any great relationship is communication and we wanted to communicate to you that Regular Metalhead Boxes will be delayed slightly due to a key item being late to arrive to us. This item (a $20 value), ordered two months in advance, was to arrive from overseas, Thursday Aug 24th at the latest, and we had just received an update that the shipment will now not arrive until middle of next week, Aug 30th-31st.

Due to the issues and backlash we had received last month, where items were quickly selected to replace the missing T-Shirt, we have opted to not replace this item. So, unfortunately we are now delayed, and hope to have everything shipped by the end of the week next week. This months boxes will receive a T-Shirt, this is not the item that is delayed.

All Vinyl Metalhead and Mini Metalhead Boxes are not affected by this item, so those boxes will be shipping today as per the schedule.

We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused, and thank you in advance for your patience and understanding. We will continue to update everyone and announce once they have been shipped, thank you again!
