| | I just got a request from Amazon to confirm the order update for GBD. Their new shipping date is August 8, and the price remains the same as when I originally ordered it. CRD is still listed for July, and its price is also unchanged. I expect they'll send another update for CRD's shipping date soon. | |

| Default repsonse being sent out whenever a product expected ship date slips. If they don't you can be sure that a subset of customers would also piss and moan about something shipping late and they were never informed...another cover your butt exercise required by the overly litgious society.
As for cancelling the order, I was given almost a month to reply before it would be cancelled, so I am not sure how that happened to your order unless you accidently hit a cancel order option. | |

| A word of $1 advice to some... check the current price of the GBD... it might be $1 cheaper than the price that you preordered it.
As for those people seeing a September shipping date for your GBD: When you bundle things together to save on shipping, they ship in one shipment. The CRD isn't available until September, so the GBD won't be shipped to you until the CRD is ready to go if you choose super saver shipping.
If you want to avoid this, but the CRD separately, and then buy the GBD with a pack of WotDQ. That will allow both orders to qualify for super shipping and for them to arrive ASAP (while using super shipping). | |

The day that the CRD MSRP price was raised to $74.99.
There is no trace on my account that I ever made the order, nor that it had been cancelled. There are no orders at all. | |

| | Thanks for the headsup, Sammael. I went and checked and sure enough I had an email from Amazon regarding both the GBD and the CRD I have on preorder, requiring approval for the new shipping date. I updated it to make sure I keep the good preorder price I got when first placing the orders. | |

You probably never ordered them. When you click the "preorder" button it only adds them to your cart. If you never go to check out the items in your cart they are eventually removed. | |

| I also received notices to update shipping on orders containing the CRD and GBkD. The only that changed was the shipping date.
Note for the GBkD, I'd cancelled previous pre-order and re-ordered at the end of May for a slightly lower price. The earliest pre-orders may be less but checking doesn't hurt.
If you have both dragons in the same Pre-order you may want to remove the Black from it. The CRD already gets free shipping so leave it by itself. I'd guess most of us can find something needed/desired to combine with the Black dragon to get free shipping on that too. | |

| I got both e-mails, updated them, it's all good here. :)
Some friends of mine saw them at Wizard World Philly this weekend, and were going on about how cool they looked, and It's too bad they're so expensive. I then explained to them that I've had them pre-ordered for months for about half price. They were fine until I told them I was getting 2 of the blacks. (If you only got one, you had to pay for shipping. *shrug* made sense to me. ;)
