May 4th came and went, they ended up being shipped a single booster box and nothing else; which was completely cleared out by 5 or so people before I even got off of work. No starters.
Shame on me for attempting to support a LGS and preorder through them? Shame on my LGS? Looks to me like Destiny still has serious serious issues for new players. Also with certain individuals in the community just coming in and cleaning out an entire booster box, how on earth do they possibly expect their local community to expand?
I learned something about a LGS here in Denver. So maybe think about this. When this one store made their order, they received their full order. But! The owners grabbed them and took 10 boxes for themselves and their friends. When we called they said, oh we only got two boxes and didn't set any aside for boosters... I found out from another game store owner they pulled this stunt. So. Also, another store, something central, doubles their prices, a box was $208 and packs were $5. So, find a good, truthful LGS and support them. A good LGS will have a great relationship with their distributors and don't jack prices up so they are the only ones who have boxes. If you are in Denver I can give you a few good LGS and the ones to stay away from.
