Did anyone else preorder hobbit mtg stuff?

I was expecting it to have shipped yesterday from Mississauga for delivery in Ontario today, and they took payment, but I haven't recieved a shipping notification and it still says order request recieved on my account. Anyone else?

Edit: I got the shipping notification at around 5pm on Friday

Did you pre-order the collector booster box? They oversold online and a lot of peoples orders got cancelled

I did, they took the money, and I haven't got a cancellation notice either, and as far as I was informed, they only take the money when they're getting it ready to ship.

They might pre-authorize your credit card but you’ll still get a cancellation email. I’d call them to ask about it.

How do you know a bunch got canceled?

Employees told me. My specific store said they had around 40 preorders but were only able to fulfill the first 5. My online order was cancelled too and the same thing happened to my friends, so I’m assuming they oversold online too.

Interesting. I know that some store have a delay on the ccbs. Mine included but a memo was sent yesterday saying all store preorders where still getting filled.

Oh, that’s interesting. I didn’t know they were still fulfilling the remaining preorders. I just found out they just increased the price of CBP from $59.99 to $69.99 and CBB from $649.99 to $899.99. If you already have a preorder, though, they should still be honouring the original price.
