I understand that MC are going ahead with Season 2, irrespective of whether the cube is found or not.

I think cubehunters are quietly searching to maximise their chances of getting the full reward. Wouldn't you?

Mind Candy tell the suppliers, suppliers tell retailers, simple as that.

Retailers generally order this stuff a while in advance, so they get advance catalogues with upcoming products. Causes a hassle when products get delayed or altered, but in general it helps keep the commerce lines flowing.

Firebox

Although lots of other smaller perplex city dealing retailers have pre orders Firebox still doesn't have anything of the sort (except season 1)

Just a little warning about any advanced pre-orders you may see... A little birdy told me that the MSRP might be lower this season. It wouldn't be a bad idea to wait and see what Firebox prices theirs at before buying.

Does anyone here have any sites or reputable retailers that might be allowing pre-orders of Booster Boxes?

Or Even a Season 2 Starter (Should There be such a thing... Honestly, a new card book would be nice.)

Let me ask my little birdy... hmm, seems like there are some unknowns right now as to when the cards will be in the states. Last week it was firm, this week there is some question. Be weary of any pre-orders being offered in the US - they do NOT have a solid commitment (yes, that's across the board). My birdy is very high up in the birdy chain of birds. But don't freak out if you already have orders in and if you are willing to potentially be disappointed (getting the cards after the 1st), there's still plenty of time for things to solidify. I know with wave 4 there was some people with pre-orders up on eBay and things got kinda close, but everyone got their cards on or before release. Still, there is no harm in waiting to pre-order. If they get here as planned, there will be enough for everyone.

I've heard from someone there won't be a season 2 starter, just FYI

Looks like Firebox got their Season 2 sorted. Boxes are £79.95, as before I believe.

By the way, you can also order extra 256-card folders from the Season 1 page.

Now go to the US site and get pissed off. They are up for $100 (changed to $110) USD. I hope for the sake of everyone who's pre-ordered already, that this is a mistake.
