I really looking forward to getting my pre-release products from Pokemon Center online since I am now missing 1 copy of Gardevoir ex card to complete my deck. Unfortunately, I am sure that there are some issues with shipping since the transactions went pending last week but now checking my credit card record again those pending transactions were gone. I tried to contact customer service yet it wasn't really helpful... Pretty sure that my orders will not be able to deliver on time (supposedly March 31 the official release day).

I know that those pre-order products do not guarantee a Gardevoir ex yet I have spent quite a bit on the pre-orders (2 ETB 1 booster bundle). I don't know when they will be delivered at this point and don't know if it is a good idea to buy singles (given that it would be mostly overpriced prior to the official release) to complete the deck to play in locals since some places are going to play post rotation standard format next week (and of course proxy is not allowed). At the moment I only have a Fusion Mew deck that is post-rotation friendly and it has been the only competitive deck that I play since the beginning of this year... I have been waiting for so long for the new set to come up and get a valid reason for me to buy new cards and build new decks...

Don't know if this is just me getting frustrated about the pre-orders but would like to hear some recommendations if I should just wait or buy.
