They sold 11k of these, that is 2.73 million before fees and shipping.
Sad thing is they could sell whatever they still have left at 25% of MSRP and still make a killing.

I feel like they could have reduced MSRP by like 1/3 and sell for like $170.00 (Or heck, $150, why not?!)and they would have sold way more and made even more money.
Just speculation of course, but I feel like they wouldn't just be sitting there.

Hasbro legit can't get their ***** together. My cousin ordered 2 of these. They came in today. With 2 more. After he looked online this has happened to a reasonable number of people.
So, he got 4 total even though he only ordered 2? Did he order from the first wave or the second?
I ordered a couple as well and they were supposed to be here today. But, due to the extreme cold, FedEx was not delivering so I will hopefully get mine tomorrow. If that happens to me, I will post here. It is an odd occurrence. I wonder what situations on the backend would cause Hasbro to accidentally send out more than the person ordered? I mean, it is obviously a mistake with processing, and we know from the first Mythic Edition debacle that their backend processing is...less than stellar. But it would be interesting to know what set of circumstances would cause that to happen.
From what I have seen, people are being sent 2 shipping boxes with identical labels and PO numbers, so they would not be charged for the extra two Mythic Boxes.
So according to Reddit, there were originally 20,000 Mythic Boxes. They stopped the auction at 9,000 sold due to the double shipping issue. If we assume that half of all orders were for 2 boxes (which is how people received double the number of boxes), then 4,500 extra boxes were shipped out by accident. So 9,000 (originally sold) + 4,500 (accidentally shipped) + 1,948 (currently sold) = 15,448 boxes have been shipped out. That leaves 4,552 boxes left to be sold.

Wait, some people got a free box?
Yes. Some people who ordered 2 Mythic Editions, received 2 shipping boxes, each containing 2 Mythic Editions. So they ordered 2, got 2 for free (4 total Mythic Editions).
Ordered one, got the eBay notification about disregarding any cancellation emails and ended up receiving one box. I assume it’s a mix up that happens only for those who ordered two boxes (based on social media).

Same.
Ordered one of the first 3000 when it went live. Got the email everyone is talking about. Received one box.
FYI: Price is high, but I really like the product. Foiling and design is nice.
Anybody open their's yet? The box is surprisingly compact.... compared to other 24-pack sets... Kinda wish the others were more compact they take up so much room on my shelf!

Mine didn't have the Tamiyo planeswalker pack in it. The one I wanted the most.
I called both HasbroToyShow and Wizards, and after some mutual finger pointing, Wizards will be sending out a replacement to arrive within the next few weeks.

Whelp.
Were there 23 packs or was Tamiyo replaced by something else?
for a premium product mistakes happen to often in my opinion
was already the case with the previous ravnica mythic edition, friend of mine ordered 4 boxes there and one had an extra lili and was missing a daretti, was fine for him, but someone else will have it the other way around and that dude will probable not be amused
Is anybody drafting these? Is it a better draft than the first set?
I'm hosting a draft in about ten days. I'm hoping that it'll be a better experience than the last time. And this time I know that Ajani and Dack are just pure traps and I'll warn the table accordingly. Seriously, who decided to put the Azorius walker in the set with Selesnya and the Selesnya walker in the set with Azorius?
Since we have more mono-color walkers this go-round, I'm anticipating that people won't be as siloed as they were last time. Might lead to a more organic-feeling draft, if only two people are opening on-guild bombs. I don't think that it'll be amazing, but I certainly expect it to be better than the trainwreck that the last one was.

That is what is seemed like based on what I read on Reddit and Facebook. Maybe you will get luck too!
