Wow!! Completely different designs for this set. Cards look good  But isn't this gonna cause some problems, seeing as the release date is 13th July?? |

I wouldn't expect Artbox to do anything about it. They don't seem have a problem with distributors who sell cases on ebay direct to consumers at wholesale prices, so why would they bother with a seller who releases the product early?

Personally I think Artbox know they have made a bit of a mistake with this set and just don't want to annoy the dealers/buyers any more than they already have. This was far, far to close to the 3d set and by the number of redemption's was not ready to ship. I think it will now just be damage limitation and letting the sellers do what they want. Yes this set sold out at Artbox but if the secondary market fails who knows how well the update will do  |

Yeah I thought that, I spoke to him and he makes the valid point that he bought the cards on the 'open market' in box form at Memo yesterday so he's not even the first seller of these cards.
I wonder whether there were a lot of dealers with OOTP at Memo - anyone?
I'll be watching these, they're cheap too

I love the new card design. I hate it I can't bid on any of them since I'm waiting for my first case to arrive. It seems nienna may win alot of them. I am disappointed that so many of the student costume cards seem to be the same material. You'd think Artbox could use a little more imagination. Now I really can't wait for my case to arrive. I'll probably tackle the UPS man when he comes to the door.

Very cool! I love the Daily Prophet and Quibbler. The Ministry Bag is interesting as well. Wonder how many of the autographs are redemptions... Thanks for posting, Canny!  |

I have to say I think you should ignore the fact that they are redemption cards, I know it is a pain sending them all off but I would rather have the set to coincide with the release of the film than have more delays cause the signers have not got their cards back to Artbox in time. Redemptions are just part of the programme I would much rather they were in there than there just be 3 signers for the set and not have 5 autos per case.
So in my opinion it is how you look at it I would say my glass is half full on this set
and when you see it on friday you will love the set (or at least I do) I think itis the best Potter set yet and I think Artbox did a great job the props and costumes are beautiful

Did someone mention that they went back to the old case shape?
Does this mean there is a chance we won't find case clusters like the last couple sets?

The case shape has changed back although the card of the boxes is quite week I had a case that was a bit squashed but the cards were ok
as for clusters there are some noticable clusters of props but there seems to be variation on autos in those cases and out of all the cases I have opened there have been only a few that were totally the same.

great to hear gimli!
I cannot wait to hear about all the props. I wonder if there are any super low numbered ones?

You make an excellent point--I think the word 'redemption' kind-of scares me because I have never dealt with it before (and that applies more so if it is a BIG auto, like one of the main three--I get scared it will get lost in transit). But I totally and completely agree--I would most certainly want the signers in there in some form than not have them at all. |

Roz,
I noticed this on the page you just linked...
P4 O.W.L. xxx/235 and xxx/335
can you explain that without breaking any of the pre release rules?
