Nowadays, Jellycat-style dolls have become a new favorite of many young consumers, and chain brands have also noticed the growing popularity of the game, designing their own products to cater to users' preferences, in order to attract fans to place orders.

Not long ago, Tea King launched a series of Jellycat style doll pendants based on milk teacups, limiting the blind box package to be snapped up by users as soon as it was launched. Many stores announced that the dolls were sold out soon after the event was launched, and some cities were unable to buy this limited perimeter from stores in just a few days, forcing many fans to turn to second-hand platforms to pick up leaks.

It is understood that consumers can randomly get a blind box doll after placing an order for a specified package through Mini Program and other channels. However, recently, some users reported that when they went to the store to pick up the doll that placed the order, they found that the blind box of the doll had turned into an open box.

Jiangxi netizens who posted the post said that when they went to pick up the meal, the store staff took out all the blind boxes that had been opened, explaining that there were quality problems with the blind boxes, and they opened them in advance for inspection. The clerk also told the store clerk that he had opened the style in the blind box and let him take away the doll he liked at will, the user said.

At that time, the user was not aware of the anomaly, and only after hindsight did he realize that what he got was not a "blind box" but a "clear box". He could not help questioning whether the unpacking and checking behavior of the staff of the store was reasonable.

And there are many users who are in a similar situation with this consumer. they posted the blind box pendant they received in the comments area, "I came home and found that there was a trace of being pried open", "the upper tear strip I received this morning was torn apart and you can see inside" and "the takeout I ordered was picked open at the bottom of the box." Guess that the blind boxes they received are all open boxes that employees have opened and checked in advance.

According to the players of the blind box, the blind box on the market basically comes with an "ID card". As long as you open the box and see the card, you can know the style of the blind box without removing the bag. Therefore, in the view of some consumers, the store staff may deliberately destroy the outer packaging of the blind box and screen out the hot items in this batch of doll pendants through the "ID card" in the box.

Many fans say that the price of blind box dolls of Tea King has risen spontaneously, and the prices of some popular models have doubled on second-hand platforms. Therefore, they think that some employees may take apart all the blind boxes in the store for profit and leave behind hot money, and then send out the less popular dolls with the order.

For players, unpacking without knowing the inside is the pleasure of buying a blind box. Even if they do not draw money from the center, they will only say that they are unlucky and will not be dissatisfied. But once the blind box is open, the surprise of opening the box is gone, saying, "what's the point of opening it all?" At the same time, they also believe that the practices of store employees undermine the fairness of the activities and affect the consumer experience of users.

In the face of questions from consumers, the workers of Tea King explained that all stores have corresponding doll inventory, and every time a customer places an order successfully, the stock of dolls in the store will automatically decrease, and employees are not allowed to buy in advance because of relevant regulations. So the pendants in most stores are actually bought by customers.

As witnesses of the event, they said that as soon as the official Mini Program and other channels updated the product content in the early hours of the day of the event, many users who stood there placed pre-orders in advance, causing the store's doll inventory to be emptied early, rather than being deliberately detained by the shop assistant and not put on the shelves, as netizens guessed.
