Retailer secures the box in a safe spot until pre-release, or
A chunk of the set's new cards get spoiled early.
The question is, when do retailers typically begin receiving product ahead of the Pre-Release Event?
In my neck of the woods, it seems to be about 3 to 5 days out.
Maybe Wizards is controlling the "leaks" this go around.
Give out a box to a trusted vendor with orders to "leak" a card or two or a pack or two, post it up. Interwebz goes crazy. Trick Jarrett puts out another "Why leaks hurt" article (prepared for this "leak") and create some buzz.
Just a thought.

STOP using "dude/bro" as a pejorative or insult. Grow up.
Margaret Thatcher: “The problem with socialism is that you eventually run out of other people's money.”
Benjamin Franklin: "Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety."
Martin Luther King Jr.: "I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character."

That conspiracy theory is so airtight it's probably the case.

If this is the same picture from the Reddit thread, it didn't have a fat pack inside of it. They just ship things in whatever boxes they have lying around.
Anyone who has worked in a large retail store can attest to this.

Not saying it's fake but
Diden't Magic change the name to bundle packs and the word fat pack is extinct
That's with Kaladesh, I believe.
Just kidding.

Some person on the forum here check what was in the box
In the eldritch moon delivery box contained (promo versions of EDM emrakul.)
I play Standard, EDH, and a very tiny bit of Modern.
My youtube channel, I upload gaming related videos and other videos.
Actually, the switch from tin to aluminium was part of the great alien takeover. Without lead in the foil the hats are useless.
