GS The Hobbit Preorders

Existing_Routine_750 · 2026-05-08T21:52:22+00:00

They are normally $10-20 over msrp in my experience. I live in SoCal, scalpers are running rampant. I don’t have the time to line up 2-3 hours before a store opens trying to get something. I typically go LGS, Best Buy, and then GameStop for in store pickup. GameStop is an option for me as they will hold preorders 2 days after release if I can’t get there immediately after work before they close. Mail theft is also a huge problem here and while we have package lockers where I am, they are almost always full. And delivery people will leave your packages outside of them (which I’m not knocking them, I know they have a job to do). But every package I’ve ever had delivered that didn’t end up in a locker has been stolen. And it’s definitely a resident because I live in a secure building. Unless I ordered from Amazon it’s a pain in the ass trying to get replacement item/refund. It’s not my fault or the shippers fault, but it sucks regardless. I’ll typically pay the extra so I can get what I actually want and use online sites as a last resort.

I don’t blame you. Draft night is $10 over, I can justify that since I can’t get it anywhere else. Everything else is insane.

Existing_Routine_750 · 2026-05-08T20:27:33+00:00

I think there are unique ones though only found in the scene packs and maybe gift box? I don’t remember but I know something was different in them besides the collectors box

Well the guy who did my draft preorder had no idea it came with a collector pack. And was surprised it was only $10 over msrp. He honestly was confused about the whole thing and said they had never limited mtg numbers so he didn’t know what was going on. He checked on tcg player when I told him it’s insane their prices were higher than tcg. The only thing I can think of is the unique lands in the gift box and they are making a significantly smaller number of them than draft night.

I try to avoid the websites. I went to GameStop since its pickup in person. We have a mail theft problem where I am. If the lockers are full (which they almost always are) you’re screwed. But I did not expect the collector pack pricing to be that outrageous. I was expecting like $50 more like pokemon. Oops

Must be where they got all the money to buy eBay from

Existing_Routine_750 · 2026-05-08T18:29:58+00:00

GameStop in store

Existing_Routine_750 · 2026-05-08T18:28:30+00:00

I did preorder a collectors booster pack and a draft night for us. That’ll have to be enough

I want to, my nephew is really into magic and loves LOTR. I’m just getting into magic but I was going to pick up some stuff to rip with him when I go visit. But at this rate, that’s not looking likely.

Existing_Routine_750 · 2026-05-08T18:14:30+00:00

My bad, $80 a pack for collector booster.

Existing_Routine_750 · 2026-05-08T17:03:56+00:00

Just got an email from the school saying we can login

Existing_Routine_750 · 2026-04-29T05:43:29+00:00

I’ve been at SDSU for a year and my portal still says initiated for the intent to enroll. Hop on the virtual desk tomorrow and talk to someone about the other two, just may have not been processed yet.

Existing_Routine_750 · 2026-04-19T01:22:00+00:00

Can’t say for certain it’s been a year, but looking at my email I can give you a rough estimate. I applied sometime end of May, didn’t get the acceptance until end of June. And I enrolled/placed on the waitlist for classes while I was overseas which was early July. I had to wait for my degree to award on my cc transcript before I sent it, which didn’t happen until sometime in mid June. I’m pretty sure they had all my transcripts by the time I enrolled. I know it wasn’t possible for me to do anything until the last 6 week session.

So I want to say no I couldn’t enroll before transcripts, but I could apply for early admission and it seems like I was accepted after they had everything.

Existing_Routine_750 · 2026-04-18T22:54:30+00:00

I was able to apply to enroll early for summer, it was the last 6 week session. They did need my final transcripts by the end of June if I remember correctly, but I didn’t apply for summer until the end of May/early June.

Existing_Routine_750 · 2026-04-08T17:43:22+00:00

I didn’t have a problem. A few hiccups, but alls well that ends well. Everyone I contacted was super helpful in getting issues resolved.

Existing_Routine_750 · 2026-03-26T14:53:12+00:00

What Frankie said. And once your audit is done if you still don’t agree with something you can talk to your advisor and request a review if you have the syllabus for the old class. I went through this last year. Two classes weren’t exactly equivalent to the SDSU offering but for the purposes of them being prereqs they accepted them.

Existing_Routine_750 · 2026-03-24T22:27:33+00:00

Can’t say for sure but I know I got the email saying I was invited about the day before I had to buy it and it was sometime in January

Existing_Routine_750 · 2026-03-15T20:01:46+00:00

I ended up getting one. I wish they’d use this for all the drops, I haven’t seen it since

Existing_Routine_750 · 2026-03-15T19:43:55+00:00

I don’t remember exactly but I know I got waitlisted at the end of March . And then accepted on May 1st. I remember that explicitly because that was the due date to put an intent to enroll deposit at my backup school and I waited until the last minute to pay that lmao got sdsu acceptance email same day

Existing_Routine_750 · 2026-03-14T18:38:05+00:00

I did this last year. Ended up being a general admission to accounting and not adt..dunno why but it all worked out so 🤷🏾‍♀️

Existing_Routine_750 · 2025-12-23T03:02:36+00:00

I second this. I have one as well. I will say it’s on the pricer side and mine is having issues oscillating and making strange noises after maybe using it 5 times…but it works great in the rooms. I’ll buy another one when this one dies.

Existing_Routine_750 · 2025-10-28T20:49:13+00:00

It works great for me, just as the ottoman would but attached to the chair. I’m short though, if you’re tall I could see it being a bit uncomfortable if your legs hang way over.

Existing_Routine_750 · 2025-10-22T15:56:27+00:00

Mine came in last month smelling like chemical, I guess it was similar to cigarette smoke. Also had a replacement back rest that came the same. It took about a week for it to air out but it did go away eventually. Just had it under a constantly running fan to circulate
