I emailed the information to Starmax yesterday (same I'd already sent to YesAsia), with pictures of the damage added. Have neither received a reply, nor a 'bounce'-message.
I tried to send the same message to YesAsia as a sort of backup, but all the email adresses they've used re this issue are now 'no reply'-adresses, including the one I was asked to use when they first sent out emails regarding this.
I ended up leaving a message on their online customer support page saying I didn't think they'd handled this very well.

I got back from Florida today. As I walk in the door, I see the package from Starmax on my couch. Thank God! I did not want to be worrying about this for another month.

I received an email from KoreanDVDs that Starmax is sending out another batch of digipack replacements on January 12th.
In other related Oldboy news, the film is playing the Sundance Film Festival at the end of January, which should raise its US profile considerably. Oldboy has a US release date of March 25th (per IMDB).

My emails an odd one as my Tin is mucked up bugger as I am stuffed!
We are sorry about the copper case's problem what you said, but unfortunately, A/S is impossible.
If you can't possibly use it, then you can exchange for a new one or ask for a refund where you have bought it.
If you want exchange or refund, please let us know that.
If there is no e-mail about exchange or refund,
We'll send the damaged DIGIPAK to you
We are very sorry to suggest such this way.
Thank you.

Still no email from Starmax for me. Hopefully, they just mailed the replacements out and didn't email me about it. Seems like they have done that in the past to others.
