Due to the ongoing COVID-19 situation, Wizards of the Coast (WotC) recently announced that a significant percentage of the Commander 2020 print-run would be delayed beyond the product’s planned May 15 release date.
In light of this news, we ceased accepting preorders for Commander 2020 decks, and reached out to our distributors to confirm that they’d at least be able to provide us with enough “first wave” product to fulfill all of the preorders we’d received up until that time.
Unfortunately, we’ve now confirmed that they will not be able to do so, and that we will not receive the balance of our Commander 2020 product until WotC is able to complete their “second wave” of production. Although they have not yet confirmed exactly when that will be, store owners were recently informed that it “could be available as early as late May or early June“.
In order to try and address this circumstance as fairly as possible, we will be fulfilling Commander 2020 preorders in the order in which they were received. If you have a pending Commander 2020 preorder that we will not be able to fulfill from our “first wave” allocation, we will notify you via email, and ask you to confirm that you still wish to receive your preorder once the “second wave” of product arrives. As always, all preorder prices will be honored regardless of any increase in the product’s secondary market value at that time.
We apologize for any inconvenience, and thank you for your continued understanding and support during this unprecedented time.
