This several times over. The box had to cost more than the bags and card holders for sure. I suppose there are those who always prefer anything over nothing but I'd rather get nothing over cheap junk. And those bags are very, very cheap crap. I'm at the point I would just as soon they send out the cards and lanyards in a nice stiff, well designed, pretty envelope with a letter supposedly from Claudio or PV or DV saying thanks for being a part of things and here we go another year and leave it at that. In the end that's all I signed up for. Either go beyond or don't. Fake, halfway measures reveal far too much.
