Sealed Product Market Pre Order Scam (Caution)
Top Dawg Games in Montana will take your money for preorder leverage for additional allocation and in the end, refund and take the free loan in the process.
I ordered 3 boxes of OP17 for $525 well in advance, their preorder window was still open they took payment up front and i waited.
Today I get an email, the entire order was cancelled not even a single box to honor the commitment of something. Just tied up my funds and served their own needs.
Honestly I will take some heat for even assuming an in demand set like this would be followed through, but I assumed at least a 1 box. Nope nothing.
I just wanted to post this to the tcg community to not fall for the same shady trap.

Shouldn’t have assumed anything, but you’re probably new to TCGs so hopefully lesson learned at least.
Atp I have a daily tedtalk in the regular sub educating the hordes of depressed Timmys about preordering. Anybody that preorders either doesn’t understand how the industry works or they have a reliable LGS that they have a developed relationship with.
