I see conflicting info out there on this. Some places say July 03 and others say August 07. Anyone know which one it is? Thanks

Recent release history would dictate neither will likely be the actual date.

July 3 was the placeholder date up until about a week ago and then it switched to August. So I would say August at the earliest but wouldn't be surprised if its delayed again.

Is there anything actually coming out in July???

It's going to be next season before we get any of the good Bedard stuff

There's a ton of stuff scheduled for July, including 24/25 mvp, but I think it's all placeholders

Trying to hit 23-24 Allure and 23-24 SPx towards the end of the July but always subject to being pushed back. SPA won't be coming out until the end of summer at the earliest

Can you divulge the reasons for the delays?

There could always be vendor delays, packing delays, and for hard signed products it usually has to do with getting the autos.

You can never count an UD product on the horizon until the checklist releases and there's been some space between releases, people say they don't care but what happened when Synergy came out, Extended got pushed back a few weeks.

I think it will be Allure for July and if you're LUCKY SPX at the end of the month, then the big one for Aug will be OPC Platinum and possibly Ice/Clear Cut although I'd guess Ice more likely than SP way down the line.

Don't forget despite being so behind they are ADDING products like Engrained and EX-2000 which will put more strain on printing an getting things out on time as well

Allure and Platinum 23-24 coming soon, that's great news! I'll probably pick a blaster of both. Always nice to open a few packs of chrome products.

You are correct, I recall opening a box of The Cup, pulled a Lefreniere rookie and it was close to worthless... No idea why products aren't released within a calendar year of the season, it sucks!

No idea? I guess you haven't been paying attention the last few years with C-19 and all the logistics around material supply, off-shore printing, player signings etc. etc.

Is any other industry in the world still blaming delays on Covid?

The government still cites COVID for why inflation went from 1.4% to 9%.
