and another 5 by me.

I'll leave the binder for another time. like Black Friday.

I love how that pre-sell page has AM times throughout. hopefully someone can tell them it should state Noon before it causes an issue.

Order placed for 2 boxes and the binder.  I want my wax wrapper with the OS4 binder...........  Thanks for another cool release.

DrDeal

I didn't order an Old School 4 binder because there was no mention of a wax wrapper.  Instead, I ordered an extra Halloween binder while I was over the free shipping threshold.  I like that one a lot.

Just pre-ordered 1 OS4 box.

It should arrive in time for the New Year's Eve/New Year's Day time period if we are lucky (even with Dick Clark, who had counted down to the new year from 1973 to 2012 is counting down to 2013 in the great Times Square in the sky!)

I ordered another Halloween binder also. The one I have is full. Love it!

It still shows the AM times.  I was thinking of ordering another 5 boxes during the second pre-sell 'day', but am unclear whether that started at midnight or doesn't start until noon today.  Don't want last night's order to get cancelled for breaking the rules, so I guess I'll wait until tonight.

Dave,

   Thanks for another cool release. Can you please provide insight into why there is no wax wrapper included with OS Binder #4?

This is a departure from the last three OS binders so I will have to include a regular wrapper in my binder for continuity. Is there a new

rule at Topps that there will be no extras in binders? Please advise,  DrDeal

My understanding of the rules is that a single buyer/credit card can only order 5 boxes total during the first 48 hours of the sale. The last 24 hours are unlimited.

really? Sure sounded like 5 max first 24 hours and another 5 max the second 24 hours and then unlimited until the end of the pre-sale.

Why is the shipping date December 28?  I thought Dave had said we wouldn't have the pre-sale until these were ready to go.

Pre-sale is TOMORROW, Wednesday November 21 starting at 12 noon EST. It will be three days ending Saturday, November 24 at 12 noon EST.  Day one and two will have a box limit while day three will have unlimited box orders until the amount allocated is used up.

I will have more details later days to announce.

I missed the pre-sale.  Any idea as to when Topps will sell on their site.  Thanks

I have a theory or a HUNCH (get it...a nod to Joe Simko's recent character creation!) that Wacky Packs Old School 4 is going to be released tomorrow, Wednesday November 28th. I think that is a typo above where it says December 28th, just as the AM instead of PM that Topps posted earllier is a typo. David originally said they wouldn't be offering the pre-sell until the wackies were completed and ready to ship....plus the most recent issue of Non-Sport Magazine says that Old School 4 is being released in NOVEMBER, not December. Stay tuned and we'll find out soon enough!

and to go along with your crazy conspiracy theory, look what popped on the ShopTopps website today in the banner ad.
This was either supposed to be out there last week during the actual pre-sale or somebody messed up today - as it is now gone from the site.

Theyre website sucks balls they are retarded how they lay out their products and make it difficult for te consumer. Very frustrating that you need a forum to sort out their marketing. How can a nationally distribution company put together such a shitty main hub?!!! Their quality on their product is A+, packaging and art A+... why the F wouldn't you do the same for the web?!!

You shouldn't hold back so much.......just say what you feel man.  ha ha 

I heard that Topps was totally revamping their website and I expect it would be an improvement.  When I heard it it wasn't too far away, so I wouldn't be surprised if maybe towards the 1st of the year.

I agree with Ernie...Topps, lawyers & Microsoft have deadline procrasti2fuknbadfoffia. It's tart to have a release, or court date and change it because it behoovs you...or how about making a product that isnt able to work with your own friggin sister product like Ms Works and Ms Word?!
