Hi. I was at BalNY on 3/8/2008. When I asked for a box, Daphne told me that I was lucky because they just came in. She said that they had been out of boxes for a little while.
 
the bag i got about 3 weeks ago didnt come with a box. heck, when i received my sandstone city it didnt come with a box (and they had boxes in stock! lol).

i dont care about the box though. i'd rather not have one lol... doesnt bother me as long as the bag comes safe and sound :p

BalNY may have gotten the boxes in before AR....
 
In early Feb, BalNY didn't send one with box. Two bags from AR 2 weeks ago didn't come with boxes either but they already went back to AR. I don't care about the box anyway. Never store one it it.
 
I'm expecting my bag from AR tomorrow, so I'll let you know if it'll come w/ a box. I actually don't need it. I'm not blessed enough with a big closet to store bags in their boxes :laugh:. So if I were to get it (don't kill me now), I'll probably throw it in the recycling bin. Actually I hear it's a nice durable box, so I may use it to store pictures.
 
i just got the 08 yellow city from AR and it didnt come in box. I am going to be honest I didnt think it would come in one. I have bought several from NM and I didnt get a box there either, soooo I think its not commom for them to send box. I hope this helps :)
 
antonia, some discussions back stated that the factory that made the boxes were shut down because of a strike or something. therefore, ar and balny had had run out of some boxes until the factory opened up again. i don't know if the factory is up and running now.
 
I ordered my bag at the end of jan and I still haven't gotten my box yet! I don't want to email them because i've already emailed them reguarding my box twice! BUT they DID say when they got it, they had a list and they'd send them out! Don't worry--you aren't alone!

I specifically ask AR NOT to send boxes, LOL! I find them big and cumbersome and wasteful and am happy to store bags in the dustbags.

Just follow up with another email, I'm sure they will follow up when they get boxes back in (they did follow up on something for me very promptly so their service is generally excellent).
 
Update on the box situation at BalNY (sorry, I don't know what's going on at AR yet):

Called today and was told that they only have small and very large boxes. There were 3 "regular" ones left, but those were taken. They've put in an order for more. The SA told me to check back in April.
