OLD School 3 Shipped!!!!!!

[Some Idiot]

Whoops!  Hope I didn't give too much away!

[BumChex]

Got a Smokin Joe sketch card (a guy smoking!), one complete set and not quite enough for a second set.  BUT you got your tan backs, Ludlow backs, thick card white backs, checklists, etc...

It goes on and on!

We already know about the variations but please keep spoilers in the spoiler thread.

[Some Idiot]

Sorry about that!  Just a little excited to have the series in hand. 

But wait til you see the...

[ratchet007]

I finally got a shipping notice for one order of 6 boxes, but it's too early to track.  Looks like I'll be a 'have not' this weekend, which is going to be very tough...... 

Don't feel bad Pat. I, too, am a "have not" for the weekend. I didn't get shipping conformation until 9:25 this morning.

[shotwheels]

I got my shipping info today also . I only ordered 9 boxes the first was at 9:30 am and the other was at 4:00 pm .

[dth1971]

My box was shipped today.

I thought you could only order 6 boxes the first day of the pre-order? Did you circumvent the system?

[shotwheels]

I have 2 different orders the first was the 6  box limit , then when the "limit" was lifted  , I ordered 3 more

[sco(o)t]

Irony of ironies... I checked the tracking info and my order is now sitting in Indianapolis, a scant 70 miles away. Monday, when the boxes are on their way here, my son and I will be driving to Indianapolis for his weekly blood work up. We will probably cross paths on I-70. Anyone know if you can get arrested for stopping UPS semis on the highway?

[Final Step]

My box was shipped today.

I received my 6 boxes today! They are fantastic. I only opened 1 box so far as I want the old school feeling to last longer.

[Go_Bum]

They already have master sets on ebay within hours of release.
 They also have sketch cards with $400 BIN's.

[Plan 9]

For a genuine Old School feeling I'm going to drop off my boxes at the local mom and pop drug store and ask them to sell the stuff for 15¢ a pack. Then pop in every couple of hours and buy some.

My boxes are about 5 miles from me   

[Rabid Shaver]

My Dbl 6 order is in NJ and scheduled for Wednesday...a day I have a 3hr work meeting and 12hr work day  -- hope I have the strength to
open them

PS:   Old School 3 BINDERS are now avilable!

Don't forget to ask your Mom for the money and ride your bike.

DON'T FORGET TO STEAL OTHER STUFF IN THE DRUG STORE WHEN YOU BUY YOUR WACKY'S...LIKE CANDY...

[sco(o)t]

Don't forget to ask your Mom for the money and ride your bike.

Or to take the wagon full of pop bottles you have been picking up in alleys after school for the deposit money! Many of my original Wackys were paid for that way.

I hear the theme from Mission Impossible

Or possibly you have some Spiderman in your genes? That would be helpful

[Pupsi-Cola]

Bummer, I did not get a notification yet.  Hopefully that will be in my email shortly.

Hi Bill, I haven't gotten my e-mail not. yet either.

[Pupsi-Cola]

The What!!!!!-LOL.

Well I guess seeing this reply from you to Pat answers my question as to whether or not you had your boxes or not, LMK when you get them.

Hey Scott, I've actually stopped a UPS driver going down my street to ask him if he had my boxes, He didn't have them the day I asked, But he was very polite.

And to add to the saga... now UPS tracker shows it left Indianapolis at 3:20am so is probably sitting in the UPS office here in Terre Haute. Sigh... Wish I knew a local UPS employee I could bribe to spring it loose for me. So close, yet so far.

I take that as a good omen that your sketch cards will be different in each order

Thats one good thing but why did one go thru lawnside nj , and the other thru philly ?

Probably departure time of the next truck heading out... I notice stuff via UPS from the East coast funnels through 2 different hubs but then can take about 4 different routes to get to Terre Haute, Indiana. I think it just depends on what truck is being loaded at the time, at the hub, when there are alternate possible routes.

As long as they get here thats all that matters , I guess it will be tuesday before they get here in asheville , nc

[Ruffs]

I can't even track my box , the system does not recognize my track # . GREAT

Probably too early to track. Sometimes it takes a day to get into the system.
