And a eBay pickup. Have enjoyed revisiting this so far via a NG+ run.
 
I received one Blu-ray pre-order title from Crunchyroll today. I did notice that when the plastic slipcover is removed, the steelbook spine is completely blank, with no text at all. Below is my usual steelbook photo spread:


The Apothecary Diaries Season 1 Steelbook

How are they shipping now? Looks like every corner of your slipcover is bent. :(

In a cardboard wrap-around, as usual from CR for a single Blu-ray. The corners are all bowed in a bit from the tight shrink wrap over top, but two of the front corners look more like they were warped by heat, maybe from the shrink wrap machine? There is also a knife slash on the spine as well from unboxing them. It appears all the damage was done before the actual shipping to me. Fortunately it is affecting only the plastic slipcover; the steelbook is fine underneath. I'm not really a big fan of those plastic slipcovers anyway, except that they do help protect the steelbook in shipping. I always put all my steelbooks in plastic box protectors to store them on the shelf, whether they have a plastic slipcover or not. Most steelbooks I get from Crunchyroll arrive pristine, so this one was an exception. The damage is not really as bad as it looks in the photo though, as the lighting and flash reflections make it look worse than it is.
