Just wondering what the official rulings are on these questions.

1: Is using the promo card in the prerelease legal?

2: is selling packs before the release date of the new set legal?

Technically no, but some tournament organizers either don't know about that rule or don't enforce it. The local tournament organizers here allow it. You should check with them when you attend.

I'm not aware of it being illegal, but I've never really tried though.
 
Thanks for the reply.

I looked on other sites and they said that selling the packs before the official release date is a big no-no.
However since other stores did release the packs early, the release date was pushed up.

As for the promo card, I thought it was implemented during the Wizards days.
Since in Magic tournaments that have a free promo card, you can't use it in your deck.
