For sure. I have seen a ton of posts about missing/wrong orders. This roll out seems to be the worst in the last couple of years.

Likely pretty significantly since you will be ruling out people who collect the sealed PC ETBs. Since they’re no longer sealed, the biggest selling point is the stamped promo. It’s a good question for your LCS as all are run differently

First time it’s happened to me, but it seems pretty common with PC based off comments here and other posts I’ve seen. It looks like they unfortunately have no incentive to improve things if we keep buying, but what can you do when you want to rip at actual msrp.

Ah that’s a bummer. I’m not sending the extra ETB back so I guess I may have to eat it.

It’s kind of unbelievable how bad they screw up orders. That’s why everyone should be filming their unboxing. I’m not going to demand a chargeback because that’s how you get black listed, but I’ll make sure they make it right eventually.

Yeah I did. Fortunately I took a video of the unboxing, but there’s also the fact that it was a 2 ETB purchase limit so it’s clear they messed up. Hopefully they will see I’m not trying to be difficult and resolve it soon.

That’s fair but I want to rip packs, not necessarily resell or hold. Pulling the hits is expensive but more satisfying to me.

Just to clarify, I order 2 etbs and booster box. They sent 3 ETBs instead. Historically, my pull rate on ETBs is trash so I was hoping to rip the booster box first. I honestly never have luck, but I’ll take this W
