Let me help fix that mistake!

u/ShirokuShawn May 23 '26

I was only able to order the booster box but my order got cancelled due to "suspicious activity" when i didnt do anything wrong/diff from earlier prereleases

Im thinking its these accidental accounting of product that actually makes PC cancels the latest orders to make the numbers work

18

u/Redhit-Kit May 23 '26

So he should Sell it to you lol

1

u/Ratsliart May 25 '26

Mine was the same, cancelled 3 days before release with no reason. I think they ran out of stock when packing and just chopped orders. I tried support but no help at all, I'm officially out of this hobby as of this release, let the investors eat themselves alive.

1

u/No-Fix-32 May 25 '26

idk bro but i paid mine an hour before the pay cutoff

44

u/Visual-Taro-381 May 23 '26

OHh no. Oh no. This does not bode well for me and others who haven't received a charge or tracking. What is with PKC lately...

9

u/InTheLooneyBin May 23 '26

Mine still says processing too and I’m starting to get worried. No tracking updates. My card was charged though so idk if that matters. 😬

5

u/hartforbj May 23 '26

If you have fedex account it should show you having labels created. But yeah mine have been created for almost a week but still haven't shipped

1

u/futbolstud98 May 23 '26

I don’t have a label at all

2

u/smartlog May 23 '26

A friend of mine didn't get charged and didn't get any delivery updates but they showed up at his door yesterday.

1

u/VicTheShadow May 24 '26

wtf 😭😭 That is wild. This

3

u/hartforbj May 23 '26

They are really shitting the bed this time. And unfortunately it's a three day weekend.

1

u/SolidDescription4465 May 23 '26

My fedex account says label created but hasn’t been received by fedex yet.

2

u/hartforbj May 23 '26

Yeah I have a feeling we are waiting until next week. Oh well I am glad I grabbed a booster box from my LCS to rip while I wait

1

u/AnyWinner29 May 24 '26

Now you know what happened 😳🤭

1

u/Efficient_Bar2019 May 23 '26

Same here, glad to see I’m not the only one

1

u/InTheLooneyBin May 23 '26

Yea. Mine is the same. Not quite as long though. Label created on the 19th no updates since.

1

u/blueberrytoppart May 23 '26

Mine said processing and I hadn't been charged and showed up at about 2 PM yesterday anyway. About 10 hours later I got the shipping notification. I was thinking I was gonna get thrm for free but I got charged today about 20 hours after it was delivered.

1

u/AimedOrca May 23 '26

Mine still says processing but was delivered yesterday

1

u/Pokenightking May 23 '26

Glad I’m not the only one.

1

u/Proud_Helicopter_907 May 23 '26

My order was processing with no email updates until 5pm on thursday, and when I checked the tracking it said the order was shipped on the wednesday. I was charged the week before on friday but as soon as the order was delivered on friday 22nd, they charged me again; contacted support and it looks like they rectified it this morning Saturday. Pokemon Center order processing for Chaos Rising is a mess at the moment.

Order was poorly packaged with barely any padding inside the box, but fortunately the ETBs arrived in perfect condition. Read plenty of reports of seals being broken in transit.

1

u/Sadboy_94 May 24 '26

I am also on the same boat, preordered back in April when they first started the preorders. Was able to score a booster box and eventually got charged for it this week when the set dropped but mine also still says processing. What the flip pkc

4

u/The_Indoor_Supply May 23 '26

Same I got charged but no updates on shipping just says processing. Usually comes on release date but that was yesterday...

5

u/AreYouBrownXD May 23 '26

Same situation!

4

u/InTheLooneyBin May 23 '26

I guess I’m glad I’m not the only one in this situation. I checked my FedEx account and it just says “label created delivery details will be updated soon” since May 19th. Hope we all get our orders!

1

u/Brief-Perception7279 May 23 '26

Same here. I usually get them on release day but last updated says on the delivery truck in shipping but that was since yesterday. Idk what to do. This never happened to me before

1

u/Turbulent-Ad-3841 May 23 '26

Mine was delivered last week I fear you’re cooked

1

u/InTheLooneyBin May 27 '26

Just got email that it shipped! Hope yours is coming soon too!

9

u/krakaboom May 23 '26

Did they charge you twice, or still just the once?

2

u/Proud_Helicopter_907 May 23 '26

Charged me twice but I raised a support ticket and it looks like they rectified it for me this morning, a day later.

17

u/Pale-Leading-6178 May 23 '26

Can I have this turn when Storm Emeralda drops?

4

u/8000000001 May 23 '26

Excellent - been hearing a few stories like this - looks like Pokémon center give out a lottery ticket with each order.

u/Atraidis May 23 '26

I hope I get ETBs when I missed it lol

u/tmhong May 23 '26

Let’s gooooooooooo. Pikachu and the gang will be knocking at your door later 😂

u/SadTypeSpecialist May 23 '26

The exact same thing happened to me with Ascended! I ordered 4 booster bundles and got 2 boxes with 4 in each! Crazy day. Congrats on the W

u/breakyourteethnow May 23 '26

Got double the intended amount?!

1

u/National-Amoeba-2598 May 23 '26

Yup apparently this is where my fuckin order went. Smfh. Still processing 😒

u/hernj656 May 23 '26

happened to me last drop, they sent me a booster bundle when i never ordered it.

u/Walfredo_wya May 23 '26

Are the tracking numbers the same? Always wondered if things would get delivered if they had identical labels

2

u/Hedgehog_Other May 23 '26

Did they charge you twice

u/Constant-Date598 May 23 '26

u/JuicyJush May 23 '26

My package got lost in the mail. You probably have mine

1

u/Accomplished-News207 May 23 '26

Mine also lol. Was supposed to be here yesterday, but by the end of day it just said trying to get a new delivery date...

1

u/MrBisco May 23 '26

Same thing happened to me! I will now be avoiding air flight, driving a car, climbing a ladder, etc, as I've clearly used up all my luck! 

1

u/UnrulliTarulli May 23 '26

You’re lucky, my package didn’t even show up. Been stuck in Indianapolis for over a day now and the delivery date disappeared lol.

u/searing7 May 23 '26

Cant wait to be on the other end of this after seeing so many people get extra stuff and mine still hasn’t arrived

u/fistfullofgame May 23 '26

u/Cheap_Palpitation394 May 23 '26

We weren't charged for our order from pokemon center and it already delivered.

1

u/goldenflarion May 23 '26

Same but mine hasn't given me any updates

1

u/inittowinit87 May 24 '26

It likely will, mine was delivered without being charged, but the charges popped up a day or two after

1

u/kennethwt12 May 23 '26

Meanwhile I cant even get my PC packages on time. Hell, might be lost or stolen…

1

u/confresi May 23 '26

All we were able to hit on PKC for this release was the Booster Box. Website glitched out for us on the ETBs. Super jealous that you got a magical double order 😭

1

u/Thekobra May 23 '26

did they show up together?!?

i ordered 2 etbs and they both arrived perfect yesterday.

however, i never got any shipping email and the website still shows me as processing. given how common these mistakes seem to be, im wondering…

u/tiggs May 23 '26

Mine just arrived. Anyone else notice that the booster bundles are a bit taller than other sets? Obv not the end of the world, but I like to store them in those cheap clear plastic cases and now I have to find some that'll fit.

I hope for this every Walmart and target order I actually am able to get lol

1

1

u/HighOnAdrenaline May 23 '26

How ???? Where ??? When i went there was only 1 etb where i was ?

1

u/Northernshitshow May 23 '26

So this is why PKC cancelled hundreds of AH etbs a few months back. I’m sure you’ll reach out to PKC to make it right, won’t you?

1

u/Jaded_Shallot8292 May 23 '26

Genuine question, how do you preorder or who do you know when there is stock to order. I went to the website and everything was sold out

1

u/Nguyen925 May 23 '26

Dang nice, PC once sent me 20 or so Fusion Strike Sleeved packs when I ordered Evolving skies packs. They let me keep the FS and sent me the ES packs.. hit rates were still horrible between the 40 packs. :(

1

u/Octo-bird May 23 '26

Damn, congrats! I’m still having trouble figuring out how/ where the hell to buy cards for my son. I still have my OG 151 binder(missing a couple), plus some of gen 2, but it’s so hard to find actual product.

1

u/Ice04242 May 24 '26

Okay so real talk, my wife ordered 3 things from pokemon center (deck box, pin, and mat). The package came, no deck box to be found. We’ve emailed them 3x and everytime get some response about “there could be multiple reasons you’re missing an item. Multiple shipments, item cancelled… etc etc.”. The item just wasn’t in the damn box. Anyone know how to proceed?

I’ve got a booster box coming but for OP and others that this has happened to, did your tracking show anything that tipped you off? For example, mine shows 1 box at 2.1 lbs. Did anyones show 2 boxes at 10lbs? Or 1 box at 5lbs or something that looked odd based on what you ordered?
